PUTRAJAYA: Single mother Loh Siew Hong has filed a notice of discontinuance of her application to get leave to appeal against a Court of Appeal decision allowing the Perlis Islamic Religion and Malay Customs Council (MAIPs) to intervene in her divorce proceedings.

This was confirmed by her lead counsel A. Srimurugan and MAIPs lawyer Daniel Farhan Zainul Rijal when contacted by Bernama Monday ."The reason we decided to withdraw the leave to appeal application is that the Court of Appeal has set Oct 19 to hear Loh’s appeal on the legality of her children’s conversion. Assuming our appeal is allowed, all the other proceedings will become redundant,” he told Bernama.

Loh filed an application for leave to appeal in March this year against the Court of Appeal’s decision on Feb 7, this year, in allowing MAIPs to be the second respondent in her divorce petition with her ex-husband, Muhammad Nagahswaran Muniandy, involving the custody order given to her over her three children.

On June 15, 2022, the High Court dismissed MAIPs application to intervene in the divorce petition between Loh and Muhammad Nagahswaran, who converted to Islam with their three children, to amend the sole custody granted to Loh to enable him to provide Islamic education and training as well as zakat to the children.
