Former TH COO claims trial over renovation costs for 3 houses
Adi Azuan Abdul Ghani is accused of receiving valuable items in the form of renovation costs for the three houses from AG Reka Sdn Bhd director Thamsulazri Ismail.
Former Tabung Haji chief operating officer Adi Azuan Abdul Ghani appeared in court to face three charges of receiving renovation costs totaling RM302,499.27 for three homes nine years ago. Adi, 56, pleaded guilty in sessions court, facing potential imprisonment and fines under Section 165 of the Penal Code, which prohibits public servants from obtaining valuables without consideration.
The charges allege Adi received RM235,866.58 for a house in Shah Alam, RM50,698.74 for a property in Kota Damansara, and RM15,933.95 for a home in Subang Jaya. The offences are said to have occurred on March 7, 2017. Initially, MACC sought a higher RM70,000 bail, but Adi's lawyer reduced it to RM50,000, citing his client's four children still in school and his heart condition.
Adi must report to the MACC office monthly, surrender his passport, and avoid interfering with witnesses.
