KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 12): Putrajaya MP and ex-Federal Territories minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor was charged again today with receiving RM2 million over land deals involving the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL).

News portal Free Malaysia Today (FMT) reported that Tengku Adnan claimed trial before judge Azman Ahmad.

Tengku Adnan has been accused of accepting the amount without consideration from Chai Kin Kong through a cheque from Aset Kayamas Sdn Bhd despite knowing that Aset Kayamas, Sinerjuta Sdn Bhd, Fiber Vista Sdn Bhd, Era Ecoland Sdn Bhd, Garuda Searah Sdn Bhd and Ujana Mutiara Sdn Bhd had dealings with his ministry.

The offence was allegedly committed at the Pusat Bandar Damansara CIMB bank branch here on June 14, 2016.

Tengku Adnan was charged under Section 165 of the Penal Code, under which it is an offence for a public servant to obtain valuables without consideration.

Those found guilty can be jailed for up to two years and fined.

Azman allowed bail of RM500,000 with one surety.
