The corruption trial of Kinabatangan MP Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin and his wife, Datin Seri Zizie A. Samad, involves allegations of bribes totalling RM2,797,500. These sums were allegedly accepted as inducements for Felcra to approve investments in a Public Mutual unit trust.
Allegations of RM2.2 Million Bribe

Bung Moktar is accused of accepting RM2.2 million from Public Mutual investment agent Madhi Abdul Hamid. This alleged bribe was reportedly channelled through his wife, Zizie Izette, and was intended to secure Felcra's approval to invest RM150 million in the Public Mutual unit trust. The alleged transaction occurred between June 12, 2015, at Public Bank's Taman Melawati branch.
Additional Cash Bribe of RM335,500

Further charges against Bung Moktar include the alleged acceptance of a cash bribe amounting to RM335,500. This sum was purportedly received for himself from another Public Mutual investment agent, Norlaili Ahmad Mokhtar, under Zizie Izette's name. This alleged incident also took place at the same Public Bank branch on June 19, 2015, for the same purpose of influencing Felcra's investment decisions.
Zizie Izette Faces Abetment Charges

In relation to these bribery allegations, Datin Seri Zizie A. Samad faces three charges of abetting her husband. She is accused of facilitating the alleged corrupt transactions that occurred on the same dates and at the same location as the bribes purportedly received by Bung Moktar. Both Bung Moktar and Zizie Izette have pleaded not guilty to the charges laid against them.
