Event Summary

Datin Seri Zizie Izette Abdul Samad, wife of late Kinabatangan MP Bung Moktar Radin, is awaiting the Sessions Court verdict on three charges of abetting her husband in obtaining RM2.8 million in bribes linked to a RM150 million investment in Public Mutual Berhad unit trusts. The charges stem from alleged bribes from investment agents Abdul Hamid Dbeibeh and Norhaili Ahmad Mokhtar to secure Felcra Berhad investment approval.
