KUALA LUMPUR: Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman used his own money in the 14th General Election (GE14) campaign trail without financial assistance from Angkatan Bersatu Anak Muda (Armada) and Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia, the High Court was told.

Syed Saddiq’s former private secretary, Siti Nurul Hidayah, 27, said that because Syed Saddiq used his money to promote himself while contesting the Muar parliamentary seat, his team (Team Saddiq) that was tasked to handle his GE14 campaigning had planned to host fundraising events to help the campaign trail.
