The Federal Court has rejected former Felda chairman Tan Sri Isa Samad's final appeal against his RM3 million corruption conviction, exhausting all remaining legal remedies available to him.
Datuk Mohd Isa Abdul Samad will learn this Friday whether Malaysia's Federal Court will grant his request to review its decision upholding his six-year corruption sentence and RM15.45 million penalty.
Two major legal proceedings command attention in Malaysian courts this week: a judicial review of former Felda chairman Isa Samad's corruption conviction and continuing money laundering charges against retired army chief Hafizuddeain Jantan.
