PUTRAJAYA: A 37-year-old woman who is embroiled in a legal battle over her religious status has turned to the Federal Court in an attempt to set aside a Court of Appeal's decision in reinstating her as a Muslim.
Her counsel A.Surendra Ananth, when contacted, confirmed that his client has filed a notice of motion yesterday, seeking leave to pursue her appeal to the Federal Court.
In civil cases, litigants must first get leave from the court before they can proceed to file their appeal to the Federal Court. In her originating summons, the woman, who was born a Hindu to a Hindu father and a Buddhist mother in 1986, sought a declaration that she was not a person professing the religion of Islam.
