RM120,000 belongs to Syed Saddiq, no proof it belongs to Armada, says lawyer


PUTRAJAYA: Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman's party told the Federal Court here on Friday (Dec 12) that the charge of misappropriating RM120,000 belonging to Armada cannot be maintained because the money belongs to the Muar Member of Parliament and there is no evidence that it belongs to any other party.

Lawyer Datuk Hisyam Teh Poh Teik, who represented Syed Saddiq, 33, as the respondent, said that the trial judge at the Kuala Lumpur High Court should have determined whether the money belonged to the respondent or not, reported Sinar Harian.
