Syndicate linked to ownership transfers of 16 ‘classic’ car plates smashed
MACC arrests 11 people, including six officers of an enforcement agency, after six months of intelligence work with JPJ.
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has dismantled a suspected syndicate in Perak involved in falsifying documents for ownership transfers of 16 classic vehicle number plates. Eleven individuals were arrested, including six civil servants, in a coordinated effort between MACC and the road transport department (JPJ) after six months of intelligence work.
The syndicate allegedly accepted bribes in exchange for conducting the fraudulent vehicle ownership transfers. The investigation, which began in 2025, revealed that the six civil servants worked with five public members acting as middlemen. The suspects, aged between 20 and 40, comprised seven men and four women. They were arrested at the Perak MACC headquarters and remanded until September 14.
Perak MACC director Azizul Ahmad Sarkawi confirmed their arrests and indicated that more arrests might be forthcoming.
