Kyairul Syahirin Ahmad, 46, pleaded not guilty to all charges, read out before Judge Kamarudin Kamsun and Judge Datin Sabariah Othman. According to the charges, Kyairul Syahirin is accused of committing fraud against several individuals, comprising two men and 10 women, by deceiving them into believing that he was conducting investment on Bursa Malaysia.
The accused's act prompted the victims to transfer a total of RM2.2 million into the accounts of his companies, including Planemax Essentials Sdn Bhd, Planetrade Holdings Sdn Bhd, Planeworld Flexi Sdn Bhd and Planetrade Premier Sdn Bhd, to which the victims would not have transferred the money had they been not duped by the victim.
He was alleged to have committed all the offences at an office unit in Plaza Arkadia, Desa Park City, Sentul, between Feb 2 and Nov 28, 2021, and he was charged under Section 420 of the Penal Code which carries a maximum jail term of 10 years and whipping and fine, if convicted.
Meanwhile, businesswoman Rozana Mohamed, 54, also pleaded not guilty in the same two courts, to 12 counts of abetting Kyairul Syahirin to committing fraud against the same 12 individuals involving the same investments and value.
All offences were alleged to have taken place at the same place and dates, and the charges were framed under Section 109 of the Penal Code, read together with Section 420 of the same law, which carries a maximum jail term of 10 years and whipping and fine, if convicted.
On March 4, it was reported that police arrested nine individuals including a man who used a fake 'Datuk Seri' title for alleged involvement in an investment fraud scam in several raids in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Penang. The investigation found that the 46-year-old man was the mastermind who owned four companies to carry out the fraudulent investment activities.
