RCI TH: Former deputy GM charged with abetting in CBT

Former deputy general manager of TH Properties, Tengku Kamarolhisham Tengku Kamaruddin, appeared in court on Monday, pleading not guilty to charges of abetting a criminal breach of trust involving RM14,000. The funds were allegedly misappropriated by Mohamad Hashim Mukhatap, a former construction manager at THP Timur Sdn Bhd. The alleged wrongdoing pertains to a commercial building project on Lot 273, Section 12, Bandar Kota Baru, Kelantan, which was intended to be developed by Tabung Haji.

The charges stem from the misappropriation of penalty funds collected from a contractor for the project. Mohamad Hashim was separately charged with criminal breach of trust on September 15 for allegedly depositing the RM14,000 into his personal bank account. The maximum penalty for conviction under Section 109 and 409 of the Penal Code includes a 20-year jail term, whipping, and a fine.
