Wednesday, 11 Dec 2019 04:20 PM MYTKUALA LUMPUR, Dec 11 — The High Court today set Jan 9 next year for decision on prosecution’s application to forfeit RM2,479,300.18 seized from the Pahang Umno Liaison Committee.
The money was seized by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission after it was allegedly linked to the 1Malaysia Development Berhad scandal. Judge Datuk Muhammad Jamil Hussin set the date after hearing submissions from deputy public prosecutor Farah Yasmin Salleh and counsel Mohd Shukri Ahmad Mansor representing Pahang Umno Liaison Committee.
