KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 22 — The High Court here today allowed the application of defendant Datuk Mohd Hafarizam Harun, Umno’s legal adviser, to have his RM15 million money laundering case to be transferred from the Sessions Court to this court. Earlier, Hasnal Rezua told the court that the defence wanted the case to be heard in the higher court as the Sessions Court judge might not give his client a fair hearing.

Hasnal Rezua was referring to the case of the former prime minister whose cases originated from the Sessions Court but were later transferred to the High Court for trial.On February 21 this year, Mohd Hafarizam pleaded not guilty to two money laundering charges, involving RM15 million in cheques received from Najib, and which were deposited into his law firm’s bank account.
