Cash 'donation': Reports lodged against ‘MB-in-waiting’

Kelantan PAS Youth has lodged reports with the police and the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission over the allegation that cash payments had been made to Bachok UMNO division chief Awang Adek Hussin’s personal bank account in return for a Public Works Department contract.

A police report was lodged by Mohd Roshdi Zahari, 29 from Bachok at the Kota Bharu police station this afternoon

Last week, Awang (pic) who is also deputy Finance minister and UMNO's candidate for Kelantan Menteri Besar should BN manage to end PAS's long rule in the state, admitted that he received cash deposits, but insisted that the payments were donation to fund social programmes for his Bachok UMNO division.

The matter was brought to light by a blogger with the nickname 'Thewhistleblower711' who claimed that some RM100,000 in ‘contributions’ had been made to Awang by a Johor leader whose company eventually won a contract to provide services to Bangunan Sultan Iskandar.

“The donations are suspicious and the involved party must clearly explain,” Hafiz Muza, Kelantan PAS Youth's vice chief, told Harakahdaily.
