  "summary": "The Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur has dismissed an application for a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA) in the criminal breach of trust (CBT) and money laundering case involving Maju Holdings Sdn Bhd director Tan Sri Abu Sahid Mohamed and his wife. The court decided that the DNAA application was not relevant in the case, directing that the next mention be used to fix a trial date and instructing the prosecution to prepare a list of witnesses and submit any remaining documents required by then. Abu Sahid faces 17 charges including CBT and money laundering linked to the proposed MEX II Highway project, while his wife, Puan Sri Noor Azrina Mohd Azmi, was separately charged with receiving RM67.14 million in proceeds allegedly linked to unlawful activities.",
