How did Wan Azhar explain his inability to repay the RM2 million debt?

Question

Accepted Answer

Wan Azhar Cited Outstanding Claims by the Royal Malaysia Police as the Reason for Non-Payment

Wan Azhar Mohamed Yusof, the managing director of Nexuscorpgroup Sdn Bhd (NSB), informed Khairul Nizam Mohd Sayuti that he was unable to make the outstanding RM2 million payment to Sayed Amir Muzzakkir Al Sayed Mohamad due to claims against him by the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM). Khairul Nizam, an independent consultant for NSB, testified in court that Wan Azhar had conveyed this reason directly to him.
Reason for Non-Payment Explained

During a meeting at his office on January 29, 2021, Wan Azhar stated to Khairul Nizam that he had "given up" on making the payments. He explicitly mentioned that outstanding claims from the Royal Malaysia Police were preventing him from settling the debt owed to Sayed Amir Muzzakkir. Khairul Nizam testified that he was merely present and listened to this explanation, advising Sayed Amir Muzzakkir to adhere to their prior agreement.
Details of the Debt Remain Unclear

Khairul Nizam's testimony indicated a lack of specific knowledge regarding the RM2 million debt. He was not privy to the details of whether this sum was part of a formal agreement between Wan Azhar and Sayed Amir Muzzakkir, nor was he aware of the payment schedule or the precise amounts involved. Consequently, he could not confirm the total sum Wan Azhar had already paid to Sayed Amir Muzzakkir.
Allegations of Project Assistance and Bribes

The context of these payment issues arose as Sayed Amir Muzzakkir, who was the former political secretary to the then Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin, had allegedly offered assistance to Wan Azhar in securing a project related to PDRM equipment maintenance and spare parts supply. Wan Azhar had reportedly asked Khairul Nizam to attend a meeting to discuss this potential project assistance, believing Sayed Amir Muzzakkir's position could help NSB secure the tender. Sayed Amir Muzzakkir himself faces charges of accepting bribes totalling RM350,000 from Wan Azhar in relation to this RM381 million tender for the maintenance and supply of parts for PDRM's RMPNet infrastructure.
