Zakaria has maintained that Datuk Mohd Emir Mavani Abdullah, the previous FGV president and CEO, was responsible for approving and implementing Safitex’s payment process. Emir Manavi left FGV at end-March last year, with Zakaria taking over the next month. He is seen as the one who took on and got rid of Tan Sri Mohd Isa from FGV after their fight in June, with the latter resigning from FGV,” says source says. Tan Sri Mohd Isa Abdul Samad, the former FGV chairman, is under investigation by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC). A source close to FGV says Zakaria is likely to be retained as he is popular among the settlers.
