KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has remanded a company director bearing the title "Datuk", suspected of involvement in money laundering activities amounting to approximately RM75 million. A four-day remand order, until July 6, was issued by magistrate Irza Zulaikha Rohanuddin following an application by the MACC at the Putrajaya Magistrate's Court earlier this morning. According to sources, the male suspect, in his 50s, was detained at about 4pm yesterday when he presented himself at the MACC headquarters to give a statement. "The suspect is believed to have committed the offence in 2012, involving the approval of RM400 million in loan financing for a fibre network development project.

On June 30, MACC's Special Operations Division carried out raids at four separate locations, including the suspect's residence and office in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur. "During the operation, the MACC froze 12 bank accounts, both personal and corporate, estimated to contain about RM400,000," the source added. Meanwhile, MACC Special Operations Division senior director Datuk Mohamad Zamri Zainul Abidin, when contacted, confirmed the suspect's arrest.

Nilai frozen food trader loses RM680,000 to online investment scam
SEREMBAN: A frozen food trader lost some RM680,000 after he was lured by scammers to invest in a non-existent online investment scheme. Nilai police chief Supt Abdul Malik Hasim said the victim, who is in his early 50s, lodged a report at the district police station Thursday (July 3) upon learning that he had been scammed. "The victim claimed that he had been contacted by an individual on social media on April 21 asking if he was keen to invest in an investment scheme which offered high returns. "The victim, who was taken in by the promise of high returns, then transferred the money via 43 transactions into 19 accounts," he said in a statement. Supt Abdul Malik said the victim only realised that he had been scammed when he was unable to withdraw his so-called profits. He said the case is being probed under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating.
