Lee Soon Tiang v Timbalan Menteri Dalam Negeri Malaysia & Ors

The applicant, Lee Soon Tiang, challenged his detention and restriction orders issued under the Dangerous Drugs (Special Preventive Measures) Act 1985. The High Court in Shah Alam quashed the orders due to procedural non-compliance, particularly regarding the failure to specify the applicant's association with a substantial body of persons in the detention grounds. The court found the Deputy Minister's affidavit evidence insufficient to rectify this omission.
