KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The RM3mil corruption trial involving former Felda chairman Tan Sri Mohd Isa Abdul Samad will commence on Oct 7 as fixed earlier after the High Court dismissed on Monday (Sept 23) the prosecution's application to postpone the trial as the lead prosecutor is occupied with the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) trial.
High Court judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali, in his decision, said that the reason stated by the prosecution team led by senior deputy public prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram would be truly unnecessary and unjustified.
