Hamzah’s ex-aide pressured me for share of RM19mil fee, MD tells court
Khairi Mat Jahya says former political secretary Sayed Amir Muzzakkir Al Sayed Mohamad demanded about RM9 million after he secured a consultancy fee in relation to a police tender.
Sayed Amir Muzzakkir Al Sayed Mohamad, the political secretary to a former home minister, is facing corruption charges after allegedly pressuring a managing director to share in the RM19 million consultancy fee he received from a police project. The consultancy fee was linked to a tender for maintaining and supplying spare parts for various police equipment.
Al Khairi Group Berhad managing director Khairi Mat Jahya testified that Sayed introduced him to the owner of Nexuscorpgroup, Wan Azhar Mohamed Yusof, and arranged a meeting with then-home minister Hamzah Zainudin. Sayed claimed he helped Nexuscorpgroup secure the RMPNet project. Khairi learned the contract's total value of RM359,539,662.50 after Nexuscorpgroup received the Letter of Acceptance, making his consultancy fee approximately RM19 million.
After the project's approval, Sayed demanded a portion of the fee, approximately RM9 million, threatening to interfere with Khairi's meetings with the minister if he did not comply.
