High Court judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali, in his decision, said that the reason stated by the prosecution team led by senior deputy public prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram would be truly unnecessary and unjustified.
"Now, less than one month before the start of the scheduled trial, the prosecution informed this Court that Gopal has been appointed to lead the prosecution in this case. "I understand there are hundreds of DPPs in this country and in any event, there is still enough time from today until Oct 7 to prepare for the case, which I emphasise the accused was first charged in December last year," said the judge.On Dec 14,2018, Mohd Isa pleaded not guilty to one charge of CBT by approving a proposal for the purchase of Merdeka Palace Hotel & Suites in Kuching, Sarawak, for RM160mil without the approval of the Felda Board of Directors.
He was also charged with nine counts of dishonestly receiving gratification for himself, in cash totalling RM3,090,000 from Ikhwan Zaidel, who is a board member of Gegasan Abadi Properties Sdn Bhd, through one Muhammad Zahid Md Arip, as gratification for helping to approve the purchase of Merdeka Palace Hotel & Suites in Kuching, Sarawak, by FIC Sdn Bhd, for RM160mil.
