Syed Saddiq instructed RM1mil to be distributed day after house was searched, says witness


KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court was told on Wednesday (July 20) that Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman (pic) had instructed that the RM1mil withdrawn from Angkatan Bersatu Anak Muda (Armada) account be distributed among party wing exco members, a day after the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) investigated and searched his residence in Petaling Jaya in March 2020.

MACC investigating officer Mohd Syahmeizy Sulong, 37, said the money withdrawn on March 6, 2020 was in the control of Rafiq Hakim Razali, the assistant treasurer of Armada, the youth wing of Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia and no transactions were made during that period before it was distributed on April 1, 2020.
