KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): A former member of the Federal Land Consolidation and Rehabilitation Authority (Felcra) board of directors (BOD) told the Sessions Court that a new investment totalling RM150mil in the Public Mutual unit trust was never discussed during the board meetings before it was approved by then Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah.

Dr Habibah Suleiman, 72, said Ahmad Husni’s decision to approve the investment was conveyed to the Felcra BOD meeting in June 2015.

To a question on who had the final decision over the new investment, the fifth prosecution witness said:"Actually, all decisions must be made by the Felcra BOD.” Bung Moktar, 60, who was at that time the non-executive chairman of Felcra, was charged with taking a bribe of RM2.2mil from a Public Mutual investment agent Madhi Abdul Hamid, 38, through his wife Zizie Ezette.
