The Court of Appeal has allowed an appeal by the Ministry of Home Affairs and four others to reinstate two provisions in the Extradition Act 1992 previously struck down by the High Court.

In allowing the appeal by the public prosecutor, the Minister of Home Affairs, the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Malaysian government, Justice Azizah said extradition proceedings were not intended to determine the guilt of a person but the sufficiency of evidence for extradition purposes. In 2021, businessmen Ling and Wong, sought by the US Department of Justice for their alleged involvement in a major hacking syndicate, filed a lawsuit asking the High Court to determine several constitutional questions on the validity of the extradition law.
