Also known as Tok Mat, the Negri Sembilan state lawmaker said Umno will present its arguments in court on why the MACC has no right to seize the money transferred to several Umno divisions. Mohamad also said that based on MACC’s procedures, funds frozen for at least three months will then enter the forfeiture stage, and a year after being frozen, it will seize the assets.

“So both Umno and MACC will present their arguments in court, and it remains to be seen whose argument has greater weight,” Hasan said, adding the letter to the MACC would also be used in court.
