Enforcement agency officer among 4 nabbed over animal feed claims

Four individuals, including a member of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), have been arrested for allegedly submitting fraudulent documents related to animal feed supply claims totaling RM1.8 million. The suspects, comprising three men and a woman aged between 40 and 60, appeared at the MACC office to provide statements before being detained at about 9pm the previous day.

Magistrate Aina Azahra Ariffin ordered their remand for five days until Saturday at a Kuala Lumpur magistrates court. Preliminary investigations revealed that the four had allegedly conspired between 2021 and 2023 to submit documents with false information regarding the supplies, with the actual value being lower than stated. Kuala Lumpur MACC director Zakkuan Talib confirmed the arrests upon inquiry.
