MACC to seek remand for former Tabung Haji chief exec over RCI findings

The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is set to seek a remand for a former chief executive officer of Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) as the investigations into the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report findings continue. The MACC is expected to file the remand application at the Putrajaya Magistrate’s Court at 9am, according to The Star.

The RCI report, made public on July 29 via the Malaysian Islamic Development Department (Jakim) portal, meticulously examined governance and management failures within TH. The findings have now sparked numerous investigations into the pilgrimage fund's past dealings. The former TH CEO is the most recent high-profile figure to be implicated in the probe.

Earlier, MACC detained seven others related to the investigation, including a company CEO, two directors, and four former senior management staff from TH.
