Muhyiddin, businessman played golf together in July 2020, court hears

Former Malaysian Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin allegedly met businessman Azman Yusoff after a golf tournament in July 2020, according to witness S Saravanan, security head at Tropicana Golf & Country Resort. Saravanan testified that the event, involving 15 players, took place on July 19, 2020. However, Muhyiddin's legal team disputes this, stating that the only golf tournament under the "Muhyiddin Charity Golf" in 2020 occurred in October.

Defense counsel Chetan Jethwani questioned Saravanan's certainty about the club's records, as he had joined the club only in November 2020. The trial, addressing charges of corruption and money laundering, continues with Justice Noor Ruwena Nurdin presiding.
