Ex-Petronas manager expressed wish to join Petros in work email, court hears
He allegedly sent a confidential Petronas document to Petros’s CFO and CEO using his work email.
Former Petronas manager Khairul Akmal Jasni is accused of attempting to disclose confidential information to Petros. On June 8, 2024, Khairul allegedly sent an email to Petros CFO Azha Jalil Abdul Jalil and CEO Janin Girie from a work email account, outlining his desire to join Petros. The email contained Petronas's Q1 2024 Upstream Business Performance report dated May 10, 2024.
Petronas HR manager Suhaidah Labu testified that the email was sent to Petros's executives despite Khairul not having resigned from Petronas, as there was no record of his departure. Khairul's lawyer questioned Suhaidah about the email's authorship, to which she admitted uncertainty. Khairul is charged under Section 203A(1) of the Penal Code, which can result in up to one year of imprisonment and a fine of RM1 million upon conviction. The trial continues.
