Practice Areas
This judgment dismisses a tort action by 810 plaintiffs against 18 defendants arising from a September 2020 water disruption in Wangsa Maju, Kuala Lumpur. The High Court determined the threshold issue of locus standi after the first plaintiff (PW-1), a former Member of Parliament, testified as sole witness. The Court held this was a private law tort action requiring strict standing requirements, not public interest litigation. PW-1 lacked personal standing, having resided outside the affected area with no personal water disruption. The action failed as a representative proceeding under Order 15 Rule 12 ROC 2012, lacked endorsement under Order 6 Rule 2(1)(b) and proper authorization. The remaining 809 plaintiffs adduced no evidence and defects emerged where 103 plaintiffs with non-existent identity card numbers, 8 deceased plaintiffs, 3 undischarged bankrupts without DGI sanction, and 8 residing outside the affected area. PW-1 admitted inability to prove any claim and lacked written authorisation from the plaintiffs. 1 Locus standi; representative action; tort; private law standing; Order 15 Rule 12; Order 6 Rule 2(1)(b); costs 1
