High Court judge Mariana Yahya said Rizal’s dismissal was effective Nov 22 last year following the decision reached during an extraordinary general meeting called by 18 members of the Malay business body. She also ruled in favour of a subsequent AGM on June 15, convened by Syed Hussein Alhabshee who was then elected as president, as well as any decisions originating from that second AGM.

They said the money was not deposited into the chamber’s account but instead channelled into the account of Yayasan DPMM Pulau Pinang Bhd without approval.
