KUALA LUMPUR: The Sessions Court here today denied an application by National Feedlot Corporation Sdn Bhd (NFCorp) executive chairman Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Salleh Ismail to strike out two criminal breach of trust (CBT) charges, involving RM49.7 million, against him.
Judge Norsharidah Awang,in delivering her verdict, said the case warranted a full trial because there were no defects in the charges against the applicant.
