FORMER premier and Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has claimed trial for one count of money laundering involving RM5 mil linked to the Jana Wibawa programme.

The Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman had arrived at the Shah Alam Sessions Court at around 8.20am this morning to face one more charge for money laundering before judge Rozilah Salleh.

The money laundering charge laid out under Section 4(1)(b) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001, read with Section 87(1) of the same Act, accused the 76-year-old of receiving RM5 mil in proceeds from the illegal activities from Bukhary Equity Sdn Bhd, and into Bersatu’s account on Jan 7, 2022.

The Pagoh MP may be jailed for up to 15 years and fined five times the amount involved or RM5 mil whichever is higher.

In a brief media conference after hearing the charge against him, the Bersatu president said that the court has agreed to move his cases to the Kuala Lumpur court.
