  "account": "The former CEO of GISBH Holdings Sdn Bhd, Nasiruddin Mohd Ali, faces 77 charges of illegal financial transactions totaling RM10.084 million, according to the AGC. His representation, along with three former accountants, has been rejected, and the matter has been notified to their lawyers. AGC counsel Mohd Ashrof Adrin Kamarul stated that the prosecution plans to call between 15 to 20 witnesses, with the trial expected to last six to eight days. Lawyer Rosli Kamaruddin, representing all defendants, said a second defense submission will be filed with AGC next month, proposing payment compensation. After hearing both sides, Judge Fatimah Zahari set the trial dates from April 26 to 28, June 28 to 30, and July 6 to 8, 2027. The defendants include Nasiruddin, 67, and his wife Asmat, 46, along with former accountant Mohd Khushairi Osman, 55, and Hamimah Yakub, 74. Nasiruddin faces 77 charges totaling RM10.084 million, while Hamimah has 95 charges (RM11.428 million), Khushairi 91 (RM11.958 million), and Asmanira 68 (RM4.688 million). They are charged under Section 4(1)(b) of the Prevention and Control of Money Laundering Act 2001 (AMLATFPUAA), which can carry a sentence of up to 15 years in prison and a fine of at least five times the value of the illegal activity or RM5 million.",
