The Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) has rejected representations filed by Zizie Izette Abdul Samad, the widow of Umno stalwart Bung Moktar Radin, to withdraw three graft charges over a RM150 million Felcra investment scheme 11 years ago.
Deputy public prosecutor Law Chin How informed sessions court judge Rosli Ahmad today about the rejection of the representations filed last month.
“The AGC has gone through the representations. We want the defence to resume their case,” he said.
Law said the prosecution was however withdrawing the charges against Bung, prompting the judge to order that the former Kinabatangan MP and Lamag assemblyman in Sabah be acquitted.
Rosli fixed March 5, 6 and 12 for Zizie to take the stand to be examined by her lawyers and cross-examined by the prosecution for abetment.
