KUALA LUMPUR: The High Court here has fixed a four-day hearing beginning May 17 to resume trial in a lawsuit filed by the government against National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) to reclaim RM253.6mil in loan payments and interests, if both parties fail to reach a settlement.

Judicial Commissioner Anand Ponnudurai set the date between May 17 and May 20 for hearing before adjourning the proceedings for the day after the court was informed of a possibility of a settlement.

The government filed the suit in June 2019, to recoup RM253.6mil in loan payments and interests in connection with the National Feedlot Centre in Gemas, Negeri Sembilan from the company. The government signed a loan agreement totalling RM250mil with NFC on Dec 6, 2007 to finance the costs of establishing and operating a National Feedlot Centre in Gemas as part of its policy to develop and increase beef production.

The balance of the withdrawn funds was transferred to other NFCorp accounts, and a total of RM118.04mil from this balance was allegedly misused.
