KUCHING: Sarawak-based Hock Seng Lee Bhd (HSL) is sueing Brahim’s Holdings Bhd (Brahim’s) over works done by the former in relation to the construction of a sugar refinery factory here.
Brahim’s told Bursa Malaysia yesterday that its 60 per cent owned subsidiary Admuda Sdn Bhd (Admuda) had on June 10 received a writ of statement of claim which was filed at the High Court of Sabah and Sarawak at Kuching by HSL.
HSL, which is the plaintiff, seeks to claim against Admuda the sum of RM6.94 million together with interest thereon as the court deems fit from June 24, 2014 until full and final settlement as alleged damages.
The plaintiff’s claim was arising from the non-payment by Admuda of the first progress claim for the works done by the plaintiff in relation to the design and build a sugar refinery factory with production capacity of 500 tones per day.
Brahim’s noted Admuda has taken steps to engage lawyer on the matter and will announce further developments in due course.
