Zahid cries foul over prosecution’s badgering, says confident donors, those handling charity’s funds had pious intentions

KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 — Former deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi today appeared to be frustrated during his trial, complaining that the prosecution was allegedly being unfair to him and claimed that it was seeking to trap him with questions.

Ahmad Zahid was asked if money changer Omar Ali Abdullah — which Ahmad Zahid had entrusted to collect or compile RM7.5 million of purported donations in cash into the law firm’s client account — had brought two cheques physically to him and told him these were donations for charity. Deputy public prosecutor Harris Ong Mohd Jeffery Ong then immediately replied by saying: “You talk about trust and in this court is for justice, all parties are looking for justice and you are innocent until proven guilty, so to obtain justice, the full facts have to be presented.”

High Court judge Datuk Collin Lawrence Sequerah then said he believed Harris was responding to Ahmad Zahid’s comment of being asked the same questions repeatedly, but then said the prosecution has made its point and asked them to move on to the next question.” or the need to give the benefit of doubt to donors who gave millions of ringgit purportedly for charity, suggesting it would be “funny” to ask donors if the source of their donations were from legal or illegal sources.

Underestimate the seriousness of his corrupt move that no rakyat will know it.. but God is greater..

Ahmad Zahid: I trusted Major Mazlina to handle YAB, personal accountsKUALA LUMPUR: Former Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi told the High Court here on Tuesday (July 5) that he thought well of Major Mazlina Mazlan Ramly and trusted her to manage his personal accounts as well as the account of Yayasan Akalbudi (YAB), which he owns. So you admit Yayasan is your personal account ? Whoever is entrusted or trusted, the bug stops with the boss. The responsibility lies with Zahid and nobody else. Shouldn't shift the blame to anyone else. A good leader takes responsibility for mistakes or bad decisions and always gives credit for good things to the staffs. The more he talks, the more truth reveal…….
