Al Zulfadly Alias entered a guilty plea yesterday to an additional fraud charge involving the sale of repossessed vehicles, in which he allegedly acted in concert with a co-accused.
The admission represents a fresh development in the ongoing case against the 30-something suspect, who was previously detained for impersonating a senior official within the Selangor royal household. Authorities allege he exploited this fraudulent identity to gain access to potential victims.
Court records indicate the vehicle sales scheme targeted multiple buyers, with allegations suggesting the accused and his associate misrepresented the condition and ownership status of the auctioned vehicles in question.
The case has drawn public attention due to the nature of the alleged impersonation. Police have been investigating the broader scope of Al Zulfadly's activities, with investigators reportedly examining whether additional victims may have been affected by similar schemes.
Sentencing has been deferred pending further court proceedings and the compilation of a pre-sentence report.
