Siasatan Felda: SPRM sambung reman bekas CEO anak syarikat
Siasatan berkaitan penyelewengan, salah guna kuasa dan rasuah dalam perlantikan syarikat pemaju bagi sebuah projek di Kuala Lumpur.
Malaysian Anti-Corruption Agency SPRM has permission to continue questioning a former senior executive of a corporate subsidiary over a scandal related to Felda, according to a statement. In the investigation, there are allegations of misuse of power, abuse of authority, and corruption in hiring a development company for a project in Kuala Lumpur.
Prior to this, the suspect was detained for three days since Monday. A four-day detention order issued by Justice Ezrene Zakaria on September 10, starting from September 10 to September 13, was issued after a request from SPRM to the Putrajaya High Court this morning, as the original detention period ended today. Chief Investigator of SPRM, Abd Halim Aman, said the case is being investigated under Section 16 of the SPRM Act.
On Monday, SPRM detained a 50-year-old man and a former senior managing director to assist in the investigation of the bribery project and land sales scandal. The move came several weeks after Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim announced that the government would investigate the Felda issue, following the release of a report by the royal commission of inquiry on the management and operations of Tabung Haji.
The King had instructed that the investigation into the charity body should not end with Tabung Haji alone. Last week, SPRM launched seven investigations into allegations of bribery, abuse of power, and corruption involving Felda and its subsidiary, Felda Investment Corporation.
