Kakak ahli politik dituduh seleweng RM2.42 juta harta mendiang bapa

A 60-year-old woman, sister of a Sarawak politician, appeared before Kuching Sessions Court today, denying charges of misusing RM2.42 million belonging to her late father. The court heard the allegations on June 10, 2024, when the accused was accused of unlawfully using the funds, which could lead to a prison sentence of between six months and five years, as well as a fine if found guilty.

The accused was charged with unlawfully using RM2.42 million from her father's savings account at a bank in Kuching on June 10, 2024, without the consent of family members or other heirs, believed to be part of the deceased's estate intended for rightful heirs. The court granted bail of RM100,000 with two local sureties and set September 28 for further proceedings.

The accused was represented by lawyers Roger Chin and Lim Heng Choo, while the prosecution was handled by Deputy Public Prosecutor Chuah Kai Sheng.
