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.
Perak authorities have apprehended 11 individuals, including six government employees, as part of an ongoing investigation into a suspected syndicate involved in falsifying documents for the transfer of ownership of 16 classic car plates. According to a source from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), the syndicate's operations were exposed after six months of intelligence sharing between MACC and the road transport department (JPJ).
The investigation revealed that the six government officials conspired with five civilians who served as intermediaries between 2025 and the commission of the crimes. The accused, ranging in age from their 20s to 40s, comprised seven males and four females. They were apprehended at the Perak MACC headquarters yesterday and subsequently remanded until September 14.
Perak MACC Director Azizul Ahmad Sarkawi confirmed the arrests and stated that additional individuals may be charged in the near future.
