Isa Samad gives statement from Sungai Buloh Prison as MACC widens Felda probe

The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is recording former Felda chairman Datuk Isa Samad's statement from Sungai Buloh Prison as part of investigations into Felda and its subsidiary, Felda Investment Corporation Sdn Bhd (FIC). The recording, which began on September 17, is expected to continue for another three or four days, with MACC chief commissioner Datuk Seri Abd Halim Aman confirming that the process will be completed by Thursday.

The investigations, which have expanded to include seven cases involving the purchase or investment in assets by Felda and FIC between 2010 and 2020, have led to the opening of six new investigation papers and the revival of an earlier investigation.
