Khir Toyo's corruption Trial To Start in June




Shah Alam, Jan 6 - The corruption trial of former Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Khir Toyo and Ditamas Sdn Bhd director Shamsuddin Hayroni has been fixed for hearing from June 6 to 24.

Justice Mohtarudin Baki has also granted the prosecution's request to transfer both cases to the High Court here.

On Dec 6, Dr Khir was charged at a Sessions Court here with land fraud involving two plots of land and a house in Shah Alam worth millions of ringgit.

He is charged with the intentional purchase of the said properties below market value from Shamsuddin in 2007.

Dr Khir, 45, was alleged to have committed the offence at the Selangor Mentri Besar's official residence on May 29, when he obtained for himself and his wife Datin Seri Zahrah Kechik the two plots of land and house from Shamsuddin at RM 3.5mil.

Ditamas had initially bought the two plots of land and the house on Dec 23, 2004, for a sum of RM6.5mil.

Meanwhile, Shamsuddin is charged under Sections 109 and 165 of the Penal Code with abetting Dr Khir in the fraud.
