Kuala Lumpur: The government is in the process of identifying the masterminds and ‘traitors’ among Malaysians who are supporting and helping the Sulu group in making claims over Sabah.

PETALING JAYA: The Madrid Court of Appeal, in Spain, has upheld the December 2023 ruling by the Madrid criminal court that found arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa guilty of contempt of court, over the Sulu sultanate controversy with Sabah.

Kuala Lumpur: The latest demand from the United Tausug Citizens (UTC) group for US$15 billion (RM70 billion) and recognition over Sabah is akin to an “extortion scheme”, said Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Law and Institutional Reform) Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said.

Kota Kinabalu: Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor said the Spanish Court’s verdict on rogue arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa proved that the claims made by individuals claiming to be the heirs of the Sultan of Sulu were totally baseless.

PETALING JAYA:  Arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa, who controversially ordered Malaysia to pay US$14.92 billion (RM69.88 billion) to the self-claimed heirs of the defunct Sulu sultanate, has been found guilty of contempt of court by a Spanish court.

Kuala Lumpur: The defence counsel of Spanish arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa did not deny the fact that he was ordered several times by the court to end his arbitration proceedings brought by the self-claimed heirs of the sultan of Sulu, law and institutional reform minister Azalina Othman Said said.
