Ku Nan to enter defence in bribery case


KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor is to enter his defence for allegedly receiving a RM2mil bribe from a businessman in 2016, the High Court has ordered.

“I am satisfied that the prosecution has made out a prima facie case by producing credible evidence to prove each ingredient of the offence under Section 165 of the Penal Code, which if unrebutted or unexplained would warrant a conviction.

“I therefore call upon the accused to enter his defence, ” said Justice Mohamed Zaini Mazlan yesterday.
