KUALA LUMPUR: Parti Bumiputera Perkasa Malaysia (Putra) president Datuk Ibrahim Ali told the High Court, on Friday, that he genuinely believed that the RM600,000 cheque he received from Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak was the former prime minister’s personal funds, and not from a subsidiary of SRC International Sdn Bhd.
Ibrahim, 74, said that Najib issued the cheque to him in May 2015, and at that time, he was unaware of its financial source. He did not question the cheque's origin, given that Najib was both the Prime Minister and Umno president at the time.
