Zahid's YAB trial: RM10mil given to businessman was an investment, says Datuk K


PETALING JAYA: The RM10mil from Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to businessman Datuk Wasi Khan was a form of investment, not a loan, the Kuala Lumpur High Court heard.

Businessman Datuk Seri Khalid Mohamad Jiwa said this on Monday (Aug 21) during the defence proceeding involving Ahmad Zahid, who is accused of money laundering and criminal breach of trust (CBT) involving funds belonging to charitable foundation Yayasan Akalbudi.
