“Meanwhile cheques from Kiosk Solutions Sdn Bhd were meant for ‘project lobbying’ purposes while cheques from Ri-Yaz Asset Sdn Bhd were for refunds for an unsuccessful takeover of shares,” he said. At first glance, Amirudin told the court, the number of fixed deposits opened by the law firm raised suspicions but were done in an orderly manner.

Separately, MACC investigating officer Mohamad Khairi Ibrahim also took to the stand to affirm a witness statement he had previously recorded belonging to former Yayasan Akalbudi company secretary Idris Kechek.
