KUALA LUMPUR: The government has withdrawn its application to forfeit almost RM16mil from accounts belonging to the wife of former Tabung Haji chairman Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim, Datin Seri Khadijah Mohd Noor and their four children, as well as a shop lot owned by their company, Azeera Management Consultants (M) Sdn Bhd.
Deputy Public Prosecutor Nik Haslinie Hashim told the High Court here on Friday (March 4) that the decision to withdraw the application was made by the Attorney General’s Chambers (AGC) following another letter of representation submitted by the respondents (Abdul Azeez’s family).
