A former senior Federal Land Development Authority (Felda) officer is set to be charged in Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court tomorrow, according to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).

The MACC has confirmed it has received approval to charge the individual, who will face one charge under Section 420 of the Penal Code. This case is part of a larger series of seven investigations into Felda and Felda Investment Corporation Sdn Bhd (FIC), which began in September 2020.
