The High Court here today allowed the application by former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Abdul Razak, his wife Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor, and Baling MP Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim to strike out a suit filed by Carpet Raya Sdn Bhd director J. R. Deepak Jaikishan over taxes incurred for allegedly acting as proxies for the couple.
Mathews said the court allowed the defendants’ application on grounds that the plaintiffs’ case is obviously unsustainable. The defendants filed the application on Sept 24, 2019, on grounds that the suit was vexatious and the plaintiffs had no cause of action to sue them. Deepak claimed that as a result of the transactions, he received a letter from the Inland Revenue Board , dated March 2, 2018, to settle the arrears in tax owed by Carpet Raya and his income tax, totalling more than RM6 million, excluding penalty charges and interest.
