  "account": "Former Tabung Haji (TH) chief operating officer Adi Azuan Abdul Ghani's graft case proceedings have been postponed to September 24, according to the sessions court in Shah Alam. Judge Awang Kerisnada Awang Mahmud delayed the court case after receiving information from Adi's lawyer, Wan Azwan Aiman Wan Fakhruddin, that Adi is receiving medical attention at the Universiti Malaya Medical Centre for heart-related issues. Adi had been hospitalized since August 31, with his wife Zureen Zainuddin confirming that he is undergoing multiple tests and the duration of his hospitalization is uncertain.\n\nDuring his previous court appearance in 2018, Adi was charged under Section 165 of the Penal Code for obtaining things of value as a public servant. He was subsequently remanded for four days by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission for employing a TH-linked interior design contractor to construct cabinets in his residence.",
  "summary": "Adi Azuan Abdul Ghani has been in hospital since Aug 31 for heart-related problems, says his lawyer.",
