    Court found trial judge erred: withdrawal alone did not satisfy any actus reus of criminal breach of trust or dishonest misappropriation; evidence showed withdrawn RM1,000,000 was used for Armada programs and RM120,000 fundraising proceeds were treated as belonging to appellant for campaign purposes; key prosecution witness evidence was inconsistent and possibly tainted; trial judge failed to consider defence and all evidence as required by CPC s.182A; therefore prima facie and substantive proof for s.403 and AMLA offences absent — convictions unsafe and set aside.
