JB-25-6-03/2024 (Mahkamah Tinggi)

Court found no illegality, irrationality or breach of procedural fairness: charges contained material particulars, documents relevant to answering charges were provided, applicants did not request oral hearing, Regulations 35 and 37 were complied with, there was no statutory duty to provide reasons, and the dismissals were not disproportionate; judicial review therefore dismissed.

The appeal is allowed because the DC denied the Appellant a fair hearing by refusing to admit a material witness, the DC/DB erred by imputing vicarious firm liability as personal guilt without establishing personal culpability, and the findings were not shown to meet the required beyond reasonable doubt standard; the High Court order is set aside.

The Court of Appeal upheld the High Court that the unexplained, inordinate delay by the Practice Review Committee and the failure of the Follow-Up Review Report to refer to the First Review Report constituted procedural impropriety that prejudiced the respondent and justified quashing the disciplinary decision; there was no error warranting appellate intervention.
