Court of Appeal postpones Isa Samad’s appeal hearing of bribery charges to Oct 16

PUTRAJAYA, June 26 — The appeal hearing of former Felda chairman Tan Sri Mohd Isa Abdul Samad’s against the conviction and sentence on bribery charges related to the purchase of a hotel in Sarawak has been postponed again following his admission to a private hospital in Seremban for heart problems.

“Mohd Isa’s wife, who is his bailor, is also unable to appear in today’s proceedings. She’s unable to walk due to her knee pain, for which she received treatment last night.” On February 3, 2021, the High Court convicted the 73-year-old Mohd Isa on nine bribery charges amounting to RM3 million in the Felda acquisition of Merdeka Palace Hotel & Suites in Kuching, Sarawak.
