KUALA LUMPUR: Highway concessionaire Grand Saga Sdn Bhd withdrew its application for an injunction to stop the removal of barricades it built at the controversial Bandar Mahkota Cheras intersection.
Counsel Tharminder Singh informed the High Court here of his client’s instructions to withdraw the application, saying the matter had become academic.
However, the main suit against Bandar Mahkota Cheras Open Access Road Committee chairman Tan Boon Wah, Selangor Local Government, Research and Development executive councillor Ronnie Liu and the Kajang Municipal Council — in which the plaintiff is seeking a permanent injunction as well as damages — is still pending.
The defendants had no objections to the withdrawal.
Liu’s counsel N.S. Guok said the plaintiff had yet to serve the sealed copy of the suit to the defendants.
Justice Abdul Wahab Patail struck out the application for the interim injunction with no order as to costs.
The intersection made headlines when the public demolished the barricades built by Grand Saga four times this year. On May 30, the Cabinet ordered Grand Saga to tear down the barrier and to keep the access road leading to the highway open, at least until the disposal of the suit between the concessionaire and Narajaya Sdn Bhd, the developer of Bandar Mahkota Cheras.
