Azeez Rahim didakwa di Mahkamah Sesyen KL esok

Bapa Lembaga Tabung Haji, Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim, will face charges at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court tomorrow under the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Enforcement Authority Act 2009. Former Parliament representative for Baling district, Azeez is set to appear before Judge Azura Alwi at 9 am. On August 27, Azeez and a former finance chief of the respective treasuries were subpoenaed for seven days, starting September 2, to assist the Royal Malaysian Anti-Corruption Bureau's (RCI) investigation into the institution.

The RCI report uploaded to the official Islamic Development Department (Jakim) portal on July 29 highlights the need for forensic audit to investigate the investment decision-making process, which may have led to significant asset value depreciation. The RCI report also lists problematic investments requiring forensic audit between 2014 and 2020, including questionable transactions and hidden information.

The scope of the RCI investigation covers the TH issues from 2014 to 2020, referencing findings from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), Ernst & Young (EY), and Roland Berger, excluding restructuring plans and recovery efforts underway at the time.
