Businessman in mineral prospecting case denies being bankrolled by S'pore tycoon


KOTA KINABALU: Businessman Datuk Albert Tei has denied claims that a Singaporean tycoon is bankrolling him, insisting he has never received a single sen from the individual.

Tei, initially barred from entering Sabah upon arriving at Kota Kinabalu International Airport on Monday (Sept 22) afternoon, said the claims only surfaced after he was charged on June 30 with offering bribes to two Sabah assemblymen.
