The Kuala Lumpur High Court today has dismissed Najib Abdul Razak’s application to disqualify the appointment of two lawyers from Messrs Tommy Thomas to represent former attorney-general Tommy Thomas in a RM1.9 million suit filed by the former prime minister.

Judge Ahmad Bache, in his broad grounds, said it is trite, particularly in common law and in practice, that a litigant has the right to choose a solicitor of his own choice.
