00:21The plaintiffs, SRC International, Gandingan Mentari Sendiran Behad,

00:26and Jundila Pinggiran Sendiran Behad, alleged that the funds transferred under the guise

00:31of corporate social responsibility were wrongfully paid to UMNO Headquarters and Selangor UMNO.

00:37Razlan stated that SRC International was initially established to herald a new

00:42era of energy independence for the nation, but became a tool for deception.

00:51RM16 million and RM3.5 million wrongfully paid by JPSB.
