Syed Saddiq acted in best interests of Armada, says defence | The Malaysian Insight

Former Angkatan Bersatu Anak Muda chief Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman’s counsel has told the High Court that his client had at all times acted in the best interests of the Bersatu youth wing and in accordance with his responsibilities under Bersatu’s constitution. – Bernama, April 10, 2023.

“Article 4.2 of Armada’s regulations states that the purpose of the establishment of Armada was, inter alia, to organise activities to achieve the purpose and objectives of Bersatu. “The monies were utilised for welfare and were distributed on request on an ad hoc basis to those in need and was done through Rafiq Hakim as well as other members of Armada. There was no single evidence pointing out that the monies were for Syed Saddiq’s or Rafiq’s personal use.

Gobind further submitted that the onus is on the prosecution to prove the element of CBT had been committed by Rafiq Hakim, or else the case would collapse as Syed Saddiq was charged with abetting him.
