KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s High Court on Monday granted a request from prosecutors to drop all corruption charges against the country's Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi in his charity foundation graft case.
When the court grants a DNAA, it means that the accused is discharged from the current charges without being acquitted of the charges, the New Straits Times reported. “My family and I are grateful to God because the court decided to drop the 47 charges against me,” the deputy prime minister was quoted as saying by Free Malaysia Today outside the High Court after the charges against him were dropped.
YAB is a charity foundation. The United Malays National Organisation president is the foundation’s trustee and sole signatory for cheques.
