00:00The Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court was told on Friday that Fashion Valley Sendiam Berhad received investment funds totaling nearly RM40
00:08million from Kazanah National Berhad and Permodalan National Berhad, PNB, in 2018.

00:38Tai, the fifth prosecution witness, was testifying in the trial of Fashion Valley founders Datin Vivi Sofinas Yusof and her
00:46husband, Datuk Fadzaruddin Shah Anwar, who are facing charges involving RM8 million in investment funds from Kazanah and PNB.
00:55The court was also told that RM11 million was withdrawn from Fashion Valley's bank account on August 21, 2018, through
01:03an online bulk payment transaction.
01:05Tai also testified that Fadzaruddin's bank statements showed an incoming payment of RM5 million from 30 Maple Sendiam Berhad on
01:15September 4, 2018, with the reference interim dividend.
