Both of them had today indicated to High Court Judge Datuk Rozana Ali Yusoff in her chambers that they will not object to the forfeiture third-party notice.
Rozana said the forfeiture third-party notice for Yayasan Penyelidikan Transformasi and K&Z will be gazetted on Oct 21 this year. She also fixed the same date for case management.
K&Z was represented by lawyer Chew Chang Min while Yayasan Penyelidikan Transformasi was not represented.
Deputy public prosecutor Nik Haslinie Hashim appeared for the prosecution.
She said Yayasan Penyelidikan Transformasi and K&Z did not object to the gazette of the notice. K&Z had, however, filed an affidavit that it will object to the forfeiture, according to her.
