Bekas pengerusi TH, bekas ketua setiausaha Perbendaharaan bebas reman SPRM
Dua individu itu dibebaskan pagi tadi selepas reman tujuh hari yang bermula pada 27 Ogos lalu tamat hari ini.
Two former officials, both Datuk Seri and Tan Sri in their sixties, were released from Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) detention on Monday after a seven-day investigative detention. This came to an end following the completion of interrogations by SPRM investigators. According to sources cited by Harian Metro, the individuals were released once the process of obtaining interrogations was fully completed.
The officials, who held senior positions at Tabung Haji (TH) and its treasury department, were detained under Section 23 of the SPRM Act for allegedly using their positions to gain an advantage. SPRM's Chief Commissioner, Abd Halim Aman, stated that the case was investigated under this section due to the misuse of authority to obtain benefits.
Prior to this, SPRM had detained the former TH executive chief for seven days to assist the investigation before his release on August 27. He was one of seven individuals detained by SPRM to aid the investigation, including four former senior management members of TH. The main findings of the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) into TH's management, operations, and assets from 2014 to 2020 included the alleged concealment of TH's true financial condition, including undisclosed losses from problem investments and the use of "creative accounting" methods to allow for annual profit distributions.
The commission also found financial issues at TH stemming from political interference in board member appointments, non-transparent honoraria payments, and the National Audit Department's delayed audit findings due to concerns over the reliability of the audit evidence.
