Zahid’s trial deferred again as witness still in quarantine

SHAH ALAM: The last prosecution witness in the corruption trial of Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi is still positive for Covid-19, causing the trial to be postponed for the second time this week.

The case over alleged bribes received by Ahmad Zahid in connection with the Foreign Visa System at the High Court, which was fixed for yesterday, has now been postponed to Aug 10 as the witness, a Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission investigating officer, is still unwell.
