The Perikatan Nasional chairperson, clad in a black suit,
was charged during proceedings before Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court judge
Azura Alwi this morning.
The four abuse of power charges, framed
under Section 23(1) of the MACC Act 2009, accused Muhyiddin of using his
position as then-premier and Bersatu president for an inducement of
RM232.5 million from three companies and an individual, between March 1,
2020, and Aug 20, 2021.
The three companies are Bukhary Equity
Sdn Bhd, Nepturis Sdn Bhd, and Mamfor Sdn Bhd, while the individual in
question is Azman Yusoff. The two money laundering charges were laid out under Section 4(1)(b)
of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of
Unlawful Activities Act 2001 read with Section 87(1) of the same Act.
The
76-year-old is accused of receiving RM120 million of proceeds from
illegal activity from Bukhary Equity Sdn Bhd between Feb 25, 2021, and
July 8, 2022. The money laundering was allegedly committed by receiving money banked into Bersatu’s account.
According
to Companies Commission records, billionaire Syed Mokhtar Shah Syed Nor
and his wife Sharifah Zarah Syed Kechik own Bukhary Equity Sdn Bhd,
with the former having a 99 percent stake. They are both listed as
company directors.
GalaxyM : Semua ini yang berlaku kerana DAP. Hahaha 😆
BlueFish0451 : This is more than corruption. Lives were lost. White flags were raised by the hungry. Old age EPF were emptied to live for the day. This is murder and crime against humanity. It is war crime inflicted as we were fighting the war against Covid-19 pandemic.
Hmmmmmmmm : This probably explains why the PH government fell. Some people inside the coalition had an itch they couldn't scratch because of the presence of DAP, PKR and Amanah in there.
And to top it all, LGE was holding the purse strings. There must have been a lot of frustrations being in that coalition especially with pressure from their cronies.
Knucklehead : It seems like DAP was the stumbling block that all other parties could not gasak wang rakyat, that is why so much 'hate for DAP'!!! The secret is out!!!
