Ex-general manager remanded over alleged power abuse
A source from MACC says the suspect, who was attached to a real estate investment holding firm, was arrested at the agency’s Selangor office yesterday.
A former general manager of a real estate investment company has been remanded for two days in connection with alleged abuse of power. The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) filed the application for the remand at the Shah Alam magistrates' court. The suspect, in his 30s, was arrested at the Selangor MACC office on Tuesday afternoon.
According to MACC sources, the alleged misconduct occurred between 2023 and 2025 during the suspect's tenure as general manager. The investigation alleges that the suspect abused his position to manipulate promotions, salary adjustments, and bonus awards, all of which violated established standard operating procedures. Selangor MACC director Azwan Ramli confirmed the arrest and stated that the case is under investigation for abusing one's office or position for gratification, as per Section 23 of the MACC Act 2009.
