SHAH ALAM: The Sessions Court here has set Sept 17 to hear a notice of motion filed by the prosecution to transfer former deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s case involving 33 corruption charges to the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court.

Judge Rozilah Salleh fixed the date after the prosecution requested an adjournment of yesterday’s proceedings as they were awaiting a decision on a review application that was filed last week at the Kuala Lumpur High Court and which had set Aug 28 for hearing.
