Jamal baffled how PKR Youth division leader can afford 'castle' home


The house sports a castle-like design, complete with "turrets".

PETALING JAYA: Red Shirts leader Datuk Seri Jamal Yunos wants Ampang PKR Youth chief Datuk Adam Rosly to explain how he managed to purchase a luxury house in Kuala Lumpur at such a young age.

Jamal had invited selected members of the media on a helicopter ride, courtesy of his friend, over the house allegedly belonging to Adam.

He claimed that the 28-year-old Adam had accumulated a large amount of wealth and brought the media to make an aerial observation of the property.

"I would like to clarify that I am not accusing, but would like Adam to answer what the source of his incredible wealth is," Jamal said during a press conference outside the house.

The two-and-a-half story bungalow, built in a castle-like design complete with turrets, lies in the middle of Ampang in an urban-kampung housing area.

Jamal pointed out that the house did not have water nor electricity meters.

Ampang Umno chief Datuk Ismail Kijo also pointed out that the home did not appear to have either electric or water meters.

According to a resident who lives nearby, Adam moved into the house with his family in September.

Prior to that, the building was an abandoned project and had only recently been renovated and painted.

Ismail will be lodging a report at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters in Ampang at 4pm Tuesday over Adam's purported wealth.
