MACC records Isa Samad’s statement in Sg Buloh prison
The former Felda chairman was questioned as part of a probe into the alleged abuse of power and corruption involving investments at Felda and its investment arm.
Former Felda chairman Isa Abdul Samad had his statement recorded by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) at Sungai Buloh Prison on September 17. This is part of their investigation into potential corruption, misappropriation, and abuse of power involving Felda's investments, including those at Felda Investment Corporation Sdn Bhd (FIC), according to MACC chief commissioner Abd Halim Aman.
The probe, known as Op Fella, will examine transactions and acquisitions between 2010 and 2020. Currently, MACC is focusing on allegations related to the Kuala Lumpur Vertical City (KLVC) project. Two individuals, a former Felda director-general and a former FICSB CEO, have been detained in connection with this case. MACC has recorded statements from 30 witnesses, including Felda board members and management, in connection with the KLVC investigation, which has been completed.
