An MACC investigating officer told the High Court in Shah Alam on Wednesday that the total amount of cash given by Ultra Kirana Sdn Bhd (UKSB) to former deputy prime minister Ahmad Hamidi on monthly basis between October 2014 and March 2018 was SG$13.56 million (RM43.83 million).

V Mahendran, 38, said his investigation found that it was all recorded in the company’s ledger.

“The ledger was prepared by (former UKSB administrative manager) David Tan using Microsoft Excel sheets on his laptop computer. It was aimed at recording UKSB’s monthly cash deposits and withdrawals.

“In the ledger, Tan used code names for Zahid, such as Monster, Mon, YB, Young Boy, ZH and Z,” he said when reading his witness statement during the examination-in-chief by deputy public prosecutor Zander Lim Wai Keong.
