Bumiputera Contractors Association of Malaysia (PKBM) chief Datuk Seri Azman Yusoff testified in former Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin's power abuse trial, asserting that Muhyiddin informed him in July 2020 about Bumiputera contractors receiving Jana Wibawa projects being able to donate directly to Muhyiddin's party, Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia.
Azman, testifying as the 27th prosecution witness, maintained his previous conviction that the donation request was an offence. When questioned by Muhyiddin's lawyer, Amer Hamzah Arshad, Azman denied making the complaint to the police because he "akur" (trusted) or complied with Muhyiddin's request, but later corrected his statement, claiming he did not report it to avoid accusations of "bersubahat" (abetting) Muhyiddin.
