The High Court concluded here today that the Sepang Municipal Council (MP Sepang) has no authority over the North-South Highway (PLUS) and the South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE).

Judge Datuk Zaleha Yusuf also allowed Automated Enforcement System (AES) operating company, Beta Tegap Sdn Bhd, to install AES cameras on both highways.

She said PLUS and SKVE were under the jurisdiction of the Federal government and not the state government.

On Dec 19 last year, the High Court allowed for Beta Tegap's application for a judicial review to challenge MP Sepang's decision which was filed on Dec 12.

In the application, Beta Tegap claimed that MP Sepang, through a letter dated Nov 19, 2012, decided the company had to seek permission in order to set up AES camera poles at Km301.7 of the North-South Highway and Km6.6 of the South Klang Valley Expressway, both in Dengkil, Sepang.
