23 September 2019

Counsel Datuk Ahmad Zaidi Zainal who represented Ahmad Zahid informed the court this during the proceedings for the management of the case in the presence of Judge Rozilah Salleh. “The prosecution has withdrawn the application as a review of the case at the Kuala Lumpur High Court had been rejected and the judge ordered for all cases to remain for hearing at this court,” he said.

On June 26, Ahmad Zahid was charged with seven counts of bribery amounting to SGD4.24 million involving the VLN system two years ago. All the charges were made under Section 16 , of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009, and can be sentenced under Section 24 of the same act, which provides for a maximum jail sentence of up to 20 years and fine up to five times the amount of bribery or RM10,000, whichever is higher, if found guilty.
