A white Toyota Vios carrying MACC officers was seen entering the individual's residence at 8.45am.
One of the property entrances was sealed by auxiliary police from a private company, with cones and barriers placed at the gate.
Media personnel were prevented from approaching the area.
On Tuesday (June 11), the Tan Sri's statement was recorded over six hours, from 9am to 3.07pm.
MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki previously said the highway concessionaire is a key witness in the investigation.
Earlier reports stated that 45 individuals who had given statements were recalled to provide further information.
On June 3, the MACC disclosed it had seized assets worth around RM143mil in the probe, which centres on the alleged misappropriation of sukuk funds for a Klang Valley highway project.
Investigators are also tracing luxury vehicles and properties linked to the Tan Sri, including assets in London and Switzerland.

Judge Izralizam Sanusi ordered Muhamad Haffiz Mohd Radzi, 35, Mohd Fahmee Mohamad Nor, 43, and former officer Azwan Asli, 40, to be freed on Monday (Aug 4) after finding that the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case against them.

Judge Izralizam said that based on the victim's testimony, he did not feel afraid of the three accused during the incident, as he claimed he had not committed any offence. "There is no evidence that the victim was threatened with a firearm by the three men, even though he alleged that one of them was carrying a firearm in his backpack,' said the judge, adding that the existence of the alleged firearm was not proven during the trial.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Sessions Court acquitted and discharged three Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officers, including a former officer, of gang robbery charges after the prosecution failed to establish a prima facie case. Judge Izralizam Sanusi ruled that the evidence did not support the allegations, leading to the officers' release without a defence being called. The accused—Muhamad Haffiz Mohd Radzi, 35, Mohd Fahmee Mohamad Nor, 43, and former officer Azwan Asli, 40—were charged in December 2023 with robbing a man named Kun Gao of cash, a silver suitcase, and a black Louis Vuitton bag. The alleged incident occurred at a condominium on Jalan Ampang in December 2021. Judge Izralizam noted that the victim's police report indicated the officers' presence was linked to a money laundering investigation. While the victim claimed he felt threatened, the court found no proof of wrongful restraint or use of a firearm. 'The actions were within the scope of MACC duties,' the judge stated.
