BUSINESSMAN Victor Chin Boon Long has filed legal action against the founder of Bestinet Sdn Bhd, Aminul Islam Abdul Nor, claiming that the individual is the real mastermind behind the attempted takeover of NexG Bhd.

He said the writ of summons names Aminul as the first defendant.

“I am suing him for imposing widespread pressure on enforcement, freezing accounts, forcing a change of leadership through threats and putting pressure on companies that have large stakes in NexG,” he said in a statement last night.

According to him, the attack on NexG began in October 2025, shortly after the company secured a government contract worth RM2.46 billion.

“It all started here, this ‘Corporate Mafia gang’ made a concerted effort to seize the company, especially using the Anti-Money Laundering Act (AMLA), to gain control of NexG,” he said.

Chin added that Aminul acted as a shadow director of NexG as previously revealed by the company’s founder and CEO, Datuk Abu Hanifah Noordin.

He also claimed that Aminul was involved in the appointment of ‘Corporate Mafia’ nominees to the Board of Directors.

Chin also claimed that he attempted to extract NexG's Intellectual Property and transfer the core components of the contract to Heitech Padu through subcontracting, as previously raised by Hanifah.

“Based on these supporting documents and the chronology provided, I believe there is strong evidence to prove that I am not involved in any Corporate Mafia network.

“The allegations levelled against me are merely an attempt to mislead the authorities and the public as well as an attempt to make me a ‘scapegoat’, when I am also a victim,” he said.

At the same time, Chin stressed that he was not involved in past controversies often associated with the label ‘corporate mafia’, including those involving Revenue Group Bhd, Caely Holdings Bhd (now NexG Bina Bhd) and MJets Air Sdn Bhd.

He explained that the issue involving Revenue Group was merely an internal dispute between the founders, while the Caely Holdings case involving the misuse of funds amounting to RM30.55 million occurred before his involvement.

As for MJets Air, Chin said enforcement action was more focused on the company’s operators who were facing charges under the Penal Code and the Companies Act. -April 8, 2026
