The Kuala Lumpur High Court today allowed the father of the late Altantuya Shaariibuu to initiate judicial review proceedings to compel the police to investigate an additional affidavit and statutory declaration (SD) made by a former police officer involved in the murder of the Mongolian model.

Judge Aliza Sulaiman granted the leave after senior federal counsel Nurhafizza Azizan informed the court that the attorney-general did not object to Dr Shaariibuu Setev’s application to commence the judicial review.
