Former Batu Kawan Umno division vice-chairman Datuk Seri Khairuddin Abu Hassan today filed habeas corpus application to challenge his detention under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (SOSMA).
The application was filed at the High Court registration office counter through his lawyer Fahmi Abd Moin.
Khairuddin, 53, as applicant, named Dang Wangi District deputy police chief Supt Habibi Majinji; Dang Wangi District Police chief; Inspector-General of Police and the Malaysian Government as first to fourth respondents.
In the application, Khairuddin sought a court order that his detention via a notice under Section 4(5) SOSMA 2012 dated Sept 24 which was issued by the first respondent and carried out under the supervision of the second respondent (Dang Wangi Police Chief) at the Dang Wangi District Police Headquarters, Dang Wangi, Kuala Lumpur is not valid and null and void.
He also applied for a writ of habeas corpus to be issued by the court so that he is freed immediately from detention other than seeking other relief deemed just and appropriate by the court.
Khairuddin submitted the application on the contention that his detention did not comply with the provisions of SOSMA 2012, was malicious and mala fide and an afterthought by the respondents.
The husband to actor Datin Seri Umie Aida claimed that his detention was an abuse of the legal process in the wrong use of SOSMA 2012 when his actions did not infringe on terrorism activities at all.
According to SOSMA 2012, Khairuddin could be detained without trial up to 28 days. On Sept 23, Khairuddin was rearrested under SOSMA 2012 at the Jalan Duta Courts Complex after his remand for the case under Section 124C of the Penal Code ended.
Khairuddin, prior to this, was remanded since Sept 19 under Section 124C of the Penal Code for trying to carry out activities deemed detrimental to parliamentary democracy.
Local media reported that Khairuddin allegedly planned to ask the United States to interfere in the affairs of Malaysia.
The 1Malaysia Development Berhad critic was detained by the Classified Crimes Investigation Unit of the Criminal Investigation Department of Bukit Aman at his home in Mont Kiara here, on Sept 18.
