The anti-graft agency says the appeal would be filed at the High Court within 14 days from today. macc

JOHOR BAHRU: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission will appeal today’s decision by the Sessions Court here in acquitting and discharging former Johor state executive council member Abdul Latif Bandi and two others who were charged with 37 counts of corruption and money laundering, involving RM35.7 million.

The anti-graft agency, in a statement, said the appeal would be filed at the High Court within 14 days from today. Earlier today, Sessions Court judge Judge Kamarudin Kamsun ordered the release of Latif, his son Ahmad Fauzan Hatim and property consultant Amir Shariffuddin Abd Raub after finding the prosecution had failed to prove a prima facie case against them.

The trio was charged with committing the offences in April 2017 under Section 28 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009, read together with Section 16 of the same law. They were also charged under Section 32 and Section 89 of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds From Unlawful Activities Act 2001.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
