Share updates on ‘corporate mafia’ probe, Gobind asks IGP, MACC
The DAP chairman says ample time has been given to both the police and MACC to look into the allegations and conduct the necessary investigations following a Cabinet directive in March.
DAP chairman Gobind Singh Deo has urged Malaysian authorities to provide updates on their investigation into the so-called "corporate mafia." Inspector-General of Police Khalid Ismail and the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Abd Halim Aman were asked by Gobind to share details about the probe, which was initiated by the Cabinet in March.
The digital minister stressed that enough time had passed for the police and MACC to thoroughly investigate the allegations. Gobind also wanted to know if key figures, such as businessman Victor Chin, had been called upon to assist in the investigation. Victor Chin had previously denied his involvement with the corporate mafia in March.
Chin's MMAG Holdings Bhd executive director position supports allegations that mafia tactics are used in takeovers, but he maintains that he is a victim, not a perpetrator. Malaysians deserve transparency on the matter and timely updates on the next steps to address the issue, according to Gobind, as it is a matter of national significance with international implications.
