M'sia authorities issue arrest warrant for S'porean man, he denies 'running away' & will continue to cooperate
Another Malaysian national was also issued an arrest warrant.
A Malaysian man accused of corruption has issued a statement denying he is on the run from authorities. The Singaporean man, Poh Po Lian, was granted an arrest warrant by Malaysian police on August 4 after allegedly remaining untraceable for three years. He stated, "I am very surprised to hear about the arrest warrant and the latest turn of events.
I have always cooperated with the Malaysian authorities." Poh claimed he traveled to Malaysia in March to meet with the MACC and provided a statement. He also attended a probate hearing for the late Malaysian tycoon Ta Kin Yan's estate in Kuala Lumpur, where he served as both executor and trustee. Poh stated he had sent a formal representation to the MACC on March 27, requesting that the matter be reviewed and no further action taken. He emphasized that he has never "run away" and will continue to cooperate with the authorities.
