Bersatu mahu pembekuan, penyitaan akaun dinilai semula
Gesaan itu dibuat selepas Muhyiddin Yassin dilepas tanpa dibebaskan daripada empat pertuduhan berkaitan Bukhary Equity Sdn Bhd.
Bersatu seeks reassessment of account freezing, legal experts question basis of restrictions following recent High Court ruling, according to Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz, the party's chief spokesman. The High Court's decision to release former Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin without imposing the four charges related to Bukhary Equity Sdn Bhd has raised concerns about the legal basis and factual foundation for continuing the restrictions on Bersatu's funds, Aziz said in a statement.
The court's decision to clear Muhyiddin of three charges of money laundering and one charge of abuse of power in connection with the Bukhary Equity case came after the Deputy Public Prosecutor, Ahmad Akram Gharib, requested the release of the former premier without imposing any further charges. The three money laundering charges relate to the receipt of RM200 million from Bukhary Equity, while the abuse of power charge accuses Muhyiddin of demanding the same sum from the company.
The judge noted that the prosecution did not present any reasons for the application for DNAA (discharge of all charges), instead merely stating they had no desire to continue the proceedings.
