Zul Hisham Zainal testified to the Kuala Lumpur High Court that he lobbied and secured RM1.3 million in funding from his father-in-law Ahmad Zahid Hamidi for the Royal Malaysian Police Football Association (PDRM FA) but did not know its source.

Zul Hisham (photo, above) was being cross-examined by Zahid's lawyer Rosal Azimin Ahmad in Zahid's graft case involving the alleged misused of funds belonging to Yayasan Akalbudi, a foundation the former home minister and deputy prime minister had founded.
