KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin and his wife Datin Seri Zizie Izette Abdul Samad failed in their application to review the decision of the Sessions Court here which ordered them to enter their defence on three charges of corruption amounting to RM2.8mil involving a RM150mil investment in Public Mutual unit trust.

This follows the decision of High Court Judicial Commissioner Datuk Azhar Abdul Hamid, who allowed the initial objection by deputy public prosecutor Law Chin How against the couple’s application.
