JPJ Kelantan collects RM205k from seized vehicle auction
The event, held at the JPJ headquarters in Panji, saw a Hino FSIK lorry fetch the highest bid at RM51,000, while a Modenas Kriss motorcycle sold for the lowest price of RM250.
State JPJ director Mohd Misuari Abdullah confirmed the auction was conducted transparently, with oversight from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), National Audit Department, and JPJ Headquarters. 'All vehicles were disposed of in compliance with court-issued forfeiture orders,' he said.
The second-highest bid was RM30,000 for a Daihatsu Delta. The proceeds will contribute to state revenue, reinforcing JPJ's commitment to lawful enforcement.

Anwar: Defence deals now strictly G2G to prevent graft
KUALA LUMPUR: The Madani government remains consistent in its efforts to combat corruption, even with the procurement of defence systems now conducted on a Government-to-Government (G2G) basis without the involvement of agents or commissions, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim. He said the government recently held discussions with France and Italy to ensure transparency in defence procurement deals. "This is unheard of, because procurement of weapons has historically been one of the most corrupt areas, where people steal money. "So, what is our basic principle? Go directly government to government, and avoid this manner of taking or squandering money through so-called commissions," he said in an interview on France 24, published on the network's online platform today. Speaking in the 'Tête-à-tête' programme hosted by Marc Perelman, Anwar was asked about allegations that he was pursuing a political vendetta against former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and his family via investigations by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC). Anwar responded that anti-corruption probes have been conducted transparently involving many leaders, including those aligned with the government coalition and Sabah state assemblymen, among others. "It's not about whether someone is a former finance minister or prime minister, it doesn't matter. The question is how did you get these billions? The children themselves have declared under oath that they have more than a billion…. "...I believe it is my duty to ensure that this kind of corruption stops. Secondly, any funds stolen from the people must be returned, we want to improve our schools, we want to help the poor," he said. Anwar, who is now attending the BRICS Leaders' Summit in Rio de Janeiro, had previously embarked on his working visits to Rome, Italy, and Paris, France, since July 1, before arriving in the Brazilian city on Saturday. - BERNAMA
