Deputy public prosecutor Farah Yasmin Salleh informed sessions court judge Suzana Hussin of the decision during a hearing today.
Adam had filed the representations a few days before his trial started on July 9.
His lawyer, Rajan Navaratnam, told the court the defence will proceed with the trial on Nov 13 for cross-examination of witness R Harshini, an assistant registrar at the Companies Commission of Malaysia.
On Feb 21, 2023, Adam was charged with one count of soliciting a bribe of between 3.5% and 7% for a RM47.8 million roadbuilding project from Mat Jusoh Mamat, the managing director of MIE Infrastructure & Energy Sdn Bhd.
He was also charged with another count of accepting a bribe of RM500,000 from Mat Jusoh as an inducement to help the company secure the same project from the government through direct negotiation.
In February this year, Adam was charged with two counts of receiving RM4.1 million in bribes from Lian Tan Chuan and Mat Jusoh for helping Nepturis Sdn Bhd and MIE obtain two similar Jana Wibawa projects.
He was further charged with one count of soliciting RM2 million from Lian as an inducement to help Nepturis secure another Jana Wibawa project.
Adam also faces seven charges of laundering more than RM3 million under Section 4(1)(b) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
The offences were allegedly committed around Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya between March 2021 and January 2023. - FMT
