KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 3 — A Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission investigating officer told the High Court here today that he did not investigate Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman’s source of income before the Muar MP became a minister.
Asked by Gobind if the witness knew Syed Saddiq’s source of income before becoming a minister, Asbi answered that he knew Syed Saddiq had been a part-time tutor at the International Islamic Universiti Malaysia . Asbi said he also did not investigate the amount of expenses spent by Syed Saddiq for the 14th general election campaigns. Asked by Gobind, in Syed Saddiq’s defence, he stated that the RM120,000 was to replace the money he had advanced for the GE14 campaign, Asbi replied, “I am only investigating in relation to the RM100,000”.
“I also confirmed with an ASB officer that there was money inflow amounting to RM100,000 to the YB Syed Saddiq’s account and the Maybank account belongs to YB Syed Saddiq,” said Asbi.
