KUALA LUMPUR (March 4): HHRG Bhd (KL:HHRG) said its 51%-owned subsidiary, MG Furniture Sdn Bhd, has applied for an interim injunction to restrain four directors from interfering in its operations and accessing its premises in Penang.

The four are MG Furniture’s managing director Ch'ng Chen Mong, director Tan Poh Cheng, production manager Ch'ng Boon Sin, and finance and human resource manager Sau Hwee Fern, the biomass material manufacturer said in a filing on Thursday.

A week ago, MG Furniture had suspended Chen Mong, Boon Sin and Sau from their roles amid an ongoing legal dispute between HHRG and another company, Cfamillie Holdings Sdn Bhd, regarding MG Furniture.

Chen Mong is the head of the Ch’ng family which owns the largest stake in HHRG through the family’s private vehicle, Cfamillie Holdings. Boon Sin is his son.

In its injunction application filed at the High Court, MG Furniture is seeking an order to bar the four directors from entering its premises in Nibong Tebal, Penang.

It is also seeking on order to prohibit them from obstructing the company’s directors, their authorised agents, or the court-appointed auditor — Chuah Soo Huat of Moore Stephens Associates PLT — from reviewing MG Furniture’s accounting records.

MG Furniture is also seeking an order to restrain the four directors from acting on behalf of the company.

Shares of HHRG closed half a sen or 4% lower at 12 sen on Thursday, valuing the ACE Market company at RM110.94 million.
