KUALA LUMPUR: It took about 90 minutes for two court interpreters to read out the charges to 24 people accused of misappropriating over RM10mil belonging to Maybank Islamic Berhad three years ago.

The group, including 13 from one family, claimed trial at the Sessions Court for dishonestly misappropriating RM10.2mil which they deposited into their Tabung Haji accounts between October 2014 and January 2015.
