00:00The Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court was told on Friday that Fashion Valley Sendiam Berhad received investment funds totaling nearly RM40
00:08million from Kazanah National Berhad and Permodalan National Berhad, PNB, in 2018.
00:14Public Bank Banking Services Manager Tai Le Hong testified that Kazanah transferred RM7.848 million on March 23 and RM11
00:25.742 million on March 26, while PNB transferred RM11.953 million on June 4 and RM8.365 million on December

00:46husband, Datuk Fadzaruddin Shah Anwar, who are facing charges involving RM8 million in investment funds from Kazanah and PNB.
00:55The court was also told that RM11 million was withdrawn from Fashion Valley's bank account on August 21, 2018, through
01:03an online bulk payment transaction.
01:05Tai also testified that Fadzaruddin's bank statements showed an incoming payment of RM5 million from 30 Maple Sendiam Berhad on
01:15September 4, 2018, with the reference interim dividend.
