Syed Saddiq never said fundraiser proceeds were his repayment, court told
The prosecution in Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman's misappropriation case says the Muar MP clearly intended to take Armada fundraiser proceeds for himself. – The Malaysian Insight file pic, April 11, 2023.
The two fundraisers were “Makan Amal Muo” and “Fund Raising Battle for Johor”, held on April 7 and 8, 2018, respectively, which raised RM120,000. Wan Shaharuddin said the court should declare a finding based on Syed Saddiq’s behaviour from early on, which clearly showed his intention to misappropriate the fundraiser proceeds of RM120,000 for himself.
“He also did not deny that the money, said to be proceeds from fundraising events, was never spent on GE14 campaigning, and that RM100,000 was transferred in two transactions into his Amanah Saham Bumiputera account on June 16 and 19, 2018,” he said.
