There are malicious intentions directed towards me: Yusoff Ayob

PUTRAJAYA: Former Road Transport Department deputy director general Datuk Yusoff Ayob today claimed there were malicious intentions directed towards him.
"I have no doubt and I am convinced that there was a certain agenda and malicious intent towards me," said Yusoff.
Firstly, he said, after the photograph of his vehicle was taken, it went viral on Facebook the next day, though they did not know who the driver was.
Secondly, he said 20 pictures were taken on a handphone of the RTD officer but only eight summons were issued as other pictures were said to be blurred.
"Using a handphone is not professional," he said, adding that the pictures were transferred and printed to be used for his summons.
Thirdly, he said, the Investigating Officer completed his investigations and suggested no action to be taken and this was agreed by his superior.
"I find that there is malicious intent towards me as the person who broke into the Director General's office was from the same division," he said.
"This was done to lower my dignity and humiliate me as the deputy DG," said Yusoff.
Yusoff was testifying under oath after he was ordered to enter his defence by Magistrate Muhammad Zaki Abd Kudos, at the end of the prosecution's case, today.
The magistrate found that the prosecution had succeeded in establishing "prima facie" case.
Yusoff, 58, had claimed trial to the (summons) charge of driving a car with the registration number "BLY 68" on the emergency lane at Lingkaran Putraja in Putrajaya, at the Selangor state
administration area about 6.27pm on Oct 7, 2016.
The act is in violation to Rule 53(1) of Road Traffic Rules 1959 and an offence under section 119 (1)(c) of the Road Transport Act 1987.
Magistrate Muhammad Zaki Abd Kudos fixed Oct 16, 2017 to deliver decision at the end of the case. Deputy Public Prosecutor Izzat Fauzan appeared for the prosecution.
