SHAH ALAM: The High Court here has rejected a bid to block the relocation of the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman Temple in USJ 25 that was at the centre of riots earlier this week. Three individuals acting as the administrators of the temple filed an application at the Shah Alam High Court here Thursday (Nov 29) to strike out the eviction order. However, the High Court dismissed the injunction against a 2014 consent judgement ordering the temple to be relocated. He said, however, they will go in with a civil suit against One City Development Bhd, the Selangor state government and the opposing temple faction. Advisor Datuk Seri S. Subramaniam said the Selangor state government had previously awarded the land to the temple in 1987 and again in 2001.
