The Paris Court of Appeal has annulled in its entirety the purported ‘Final Award’ from arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa granted on Feb 28, 2022, and ordered the so-called Sulu claimants to pay Malaysia €200,000 in costs.

The Spanish Supreme Court has dismissed the cassation appeal filed by arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa in the Sulu claimants' case against Malaysia, thereby upholding his conviction for contempt of court.

The formidable endeavours undertaken by the government to safeguard property, rights, and national sovereignty were unequivocally validated through Malaysia's triumphant adjudications in international courts against legal action brought by a group of Sulu individuals purporting to be descendants of the Sulu Sultanate.

Malaysia is in the process of obtaining an annulment of the purported final award of US$14.9 billion (RM62.59 billion) issued by a Spanish arbitrator, Dr Gonzalo Stampa in the case brought by the purported heirs of the Sulu Sultan, says Datuk Seri Azalina Othman Said. - BERNAMA FILE PIX
