THE prosecution has handed over two volumes of case documents to defence lawyers representing former defence intelligence chief Datuk Mohd Razali Alias and senior military officer Major General Datuk Mohamed Fauzi Kamis in separate corruption and criminal breach of trust proceedings before the High Court.
Deputy public prosecutor Low Chin How informed the court during a case management session before judge Suzana Hussin that the documents had been provided to the defence as part of pre-trial disclosure.
However, he said 17 additional documents related to Mohd Razali’s case have yet to be handed over to the defence team.
The outstanding materials include contracts, payment vouchers, service verification and acceptance certificates, meeting minutes, personnel documents, banking records and documentation obtained from the Companies Commission of Malaysia.
“Lists of witnesses as well as other facts, if any, will be handed to them at the next mention,” he said.
Low added that in the case involving Mohamed Fauzi, three further documents remain to be provided to the defence.
Lawyer Geethan Ram Vincent, representing Mohd Razali, and Muhammad Anuar Rafi, appearing on behalf of Mohamed Fauzi, confirmed the disclosure.
Judge Suzana subsequently fixed 6 May for the next mention of the cases involving both accused.
Mohd Razali, 60, faces charges of accepting a bribe amounting to US$20,000 from a 45-year-old man as an inducement to approve a service verification and payment acceptance certificate linked to the procurement of maintenance and support services for the Cyber Defence Operations Centre system under the Defence Intelligence Staff Division.
The alleged offence took place at the Malaysian Defence Intelligence Organisation at Kem Kementah in Kuala Lumpur between August and November 2024.
He was charged under Section 16(a)(B) of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009, punishable under Section 24(1) of the same Act, which carries a maximum penalty of 20 years’ imprisonment and a fine of no less than five times the value of the bribe or RM10,000, whichever is higher, upon conviction.
In two additional charges, Mohd Razali is accused of receiving payments for his wife, Azarina Bakia, amounting to RM26,800 and RM37,800 respectively for return flight tickets between Kuala Lumpur and Malaga, Spain, and Estonia.
The payments were allegedly received from the same individual, who is also a company director, at the same location on 15 November 2024 and 28 April 2025.
Those charges were brought under Section 165 of the Penal Code of Malaysia, which provides for a sentence of up to two years’ imprisonment, a fine, or both upon conviction.
In a separate case, Mohamed Fauzi, 56, is accused of committing criminal breach of trust involving RM5 million belonging to the Armed Forces welfare fund while serving as Assistant Chief of Staff for Personnel Services and chairman of the fund’s investment committee.
He is alleged to have misused the funds by making an additional investment in a company without the approval of the fund’s investment committee.
The offence was allegedly committed at the Ministry of Defence Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur on 27 November 2023.
He was charged under Section 409 of the Penal Code, which carries a penalty of between two and 20 years’ imprisonment, whipping and a fine if convicted. - March 16, 2026
