The trial for businessman Adam Radlan Adam Muhammad, who is facing three corruption charges related to the Jana Wibawa programme, has been scheduled for 15 days starting in May next year. The Sessions Court in Kuala Lumpur fixed the trial dates during a case mention on September 14. The trial will take place on May 27-29, June 10-12, July 9-11, July 22-24, and August 5-7 next year. Another case management has been set for October 31. DPP Farah Yasmin Salleh and Adam Radlan’s lawyer, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, attended the mention.
DPP Farah Yasmin Salleh informed the court that she plans to file a written application to transfer two other cases faced by Adam Radlan, which are before Sessions judge Azura Alwi, to be tried together with the three cases in this court. Farah Yasmin also mentioned that the prosecution has provided the defense with a list of about 20 witnesses who will be called for the prosecution’s case.
On February 22, Adam Radlan was charged in the Shah Alam Sessions Court with two counts of accepting bribes totaling RM4.1 million related to the Jana Wibawa program. He was also charged a day earlier in the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court for soliciting and accepting a RM500,000 bribe and again on February 28 for soliciting a RM2 million bribe.
The trial dates have been fixed, and the case management will take place later this year. The prosecution aims to consolidate the other two cases with the current three cases to be tried together. This move will enable a more efficient and comprehensive trial process.

The trial dates have been set for May 27-29, June 10-12, July 9-11, July 22-24, and August 5-7 next year. These dates will allow sufficient time for both parties to present their respective cases and for the court to reach a fair judgment.
