The government has not paid a single cent of the court-ordered damages totalling over hundreds of thousands of ringgit to three Sabahan students who sued their teacher for absenteeism since the case was decided in 2023.

Lawyer Sherzali Herza Asli, who appeared for Rusiah Sabdarin, Nur Natasha Allisya Hamali, and Calvina Angayung in the case, also confirmed that there is no stay of execution order granted to postpone the payment.
