KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 16 — Police constable and patrol officer detained for alleged RM14,000 traffic offence bribes, according to prosecutors.
Preliminary investigations indicate the male constable, in his 30s, conspired with another patrol officer between January and July 2026 to solicit and accept bribes in exchange for not taking action against motorists who committed traffic offences on the East Coast Expressway (LPT) 2.
The suspect allegedly received the bribe money through fund transfer transactions into a third-party bank account. The male officer, also in his 30s, was initially arrested on August 11 and has had his remand extended by four days until August 19.
Pahang MACC Director Mohamad Shukor Mahmud confirmed the arrest of both suspects and stated that the case is under investigation under Section 17(a) of the MACC Act 2009.
