Muhyiddin, businessman played golf together in July 2020, court hears
Tropicana Golf & Country Resort group security head S Saravanan says records show 15 players took part in a game on July 19.
Former Malaysian prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin allegedly met businessman Azman Yusoff during a golf tournament in July 2020, according to witness S Saravanan. Saravanan, the group security head for Tropicana Golf & Country Resort, testified that the names of 15 players, including Azman, were listed on the green fee tags for the event.
Azman, who is president of the Bumiputera Contractors’ Association, had claimed that Muhyiddin suggested Bumiputera members could contribute directly to Bersatu after the golf game. However, Muhyiddin's legal team disputed Azman's account, citing a separate golf event held in October 2020 under the Tan Sri Muhyiddin Charity Golf.
The Kuala Lumpur High Court heard that Saravanan, who joined the club in November 2020, could not confirm the accuracy of the information in the club's computer system and expressed doubts about its modification. The corruption trial of Muhyiddin, who faces four counts of soliciting bribes and three counts of money laundering, continues.
