Nas Suffian Nasrun at the Shah Alam sessions court today. SHAH ALAM : A senior immigration officer pleaded not guilty in the sessions court here today to five money laundering charges involving RM933,295 in proceeds from illegal activities. Nas Suffian Nasrun, 41, who serves as deputy chief assistant director of the management services division at the Johor immigration department, made the plea before judge Nasir Nordin after the charges under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 were read out to him. According to the first charge, Nas Suffian facilitated 29 online transactions totalling RM224,840 – proceeds suspected to be from unlawful activities – from a man's bank account to his mother's account between Nov 1, 2023 and May 29, 2024. He was also charged with receiving RM297,600 in proceeds from illegal activities from the same individual's account into his own account via 29 online transfers between Oct 19, 2022 and Aug 8, 2024. For the third charge, he was accused of transferring RM113,375 in proceeds from illegal activities from his own bank account to another individual's account in 32 online transactions between April 16, 2023 and Nov 2, 2023.

The final charge alleged that he used his mother's bank account, which he controlled, to channel RM88,400 into his own account through 17 online transactions between Nov 5, 2023 and Sept 23, 2024. The offences were allegedly committed at two separate bank branches, one in Kota Damansara and the other in Kajang.
