KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has dismissed an application for bail filed by Gadek assemblyman G. Saminathan who is facing two charges for alleged terrorism activities linked to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).

In his decision here on Wednesday (Jan 29), Judicial Commissioner Ahmad Shahrir Mohd Salleh said that Section 13 of the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 (Sosma) was still in the statute books despite being declared unconstitutional by High Court judge Justice Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali.
