Shahrir was accused of committing the money-laundering offence on April 20, 2014 at the Inland Revenue Board office in Kuala Lumpur by allegedly not reporting his actual income for the year 2013 when he had allegedly received a RM1 million AmIslamic Bank cheque dated November 27, 2013 and which was deposited into a Public Islamic Bank account on November 28, 2013.
On July 3, 2018, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission had questioned Shahrir over a RM1 million cheque that Najib had given him in November 2013 for Johor Baru Umno’s activities. Shahrir and several others were earlier this month reported to have filed court challenges against their respective compound notices, with Shahrir reportedly seeking to challenge the compound notice where he was asked to pay a compound of RM2.5 million within 14 days of receiving the notice over the alleged RM1 million received.
