MALACCA: A housing developer has lodged a police report against a former state assemblyman for failing to return RM130,000.

The developer, who refused to be identified, claimed that the former assemblyman was paid RM80,000 on March 14, 2003 while another RM50,000 was handed to him as a contribution to a political fund two weeks later.
The developer said that he had enquired from the political party but was informed that they did not receive any contribution from his company.
He said that he had also asked the former assemblyman to give him a receipt for the contribution to the fund but had not received one.
The developer said the former assemblyman had given assurance that they would return the RM130,000 if the company did not get the project.
He said that he had also tried several times to get the politician to return the money but he had not responded to it.
Jasin OCPD DSP Che Suza Che Hitam confirmed that the report had been lodged yesterday against the former assemblyman.
