Compound 1

According to a report by Kosmo, Dato’ Seri Utama Haji Mohamad bin Haji Hasan shared that he has received the notice for the compound and how he will proceed.

“I couldn’t return to Seremban, so the officer came to see me here (in Putrajaya) because tomorrow (December 19), I am going to Bangkok, Thailand,”

“I have received the compound notice, and this compound notice will be handed over to the Attorney General’s Chambers to determine the amount of the compound,” he said.
