The Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur has sentenced Ampang PKR Youth chief Adam Rosly Abdullah to six months’ jail and a RM30,000 fine for six counts of furnishing false information and documents to the MACC.

According to Bernama, Adam received a six-month sentence, all to run concurrently from today, and a RM5,000 fine for each offence.

Judge Allaudeen Ismail meted out the ruling after finding the defence had failed to raise reasonable doubt in the case brought against him. 

In April 2017, the 32-year-old was charged with submitting false statements and documents to the MACC during an investigation into his purportedly extraordinary wealth.

This was in relation to his income from his business, his luxury car, and a bungalow worth RM1.2mil in Kampung Melayu Ampang, which was said to have been paid for in cash.

The probe also looked into a RM200,000 loan he reportedly received from his mother-in-law and late grandmother, as well as RM500,000 from a loan shark.

However, the court granted a stay on his jail sentence pending the disposal of an appeal, and set bail at RM300,000 with one surety. 

Adam was represented by Sulaiman Ismail, while deputy public prosecutor Ahmad Gharib appeared for MACC.

A total 11 witnesses were called by the prosecution, and three by the defence.
