    Court
    Magistrates' Court
    Case number
    JE-89-87-11/2025 (Mahkamah Majistret)

    The magistrate dismissed the recusal application because the applicant failed to establish a real danger of bias or any personal or financial interest; prior hearings of related accused on different facts and evidence do not by themselves establish disqualifying bias; the application was also prejudicially delayed.
