Two corporate brothers, Datuk Seri and Datuk, were released on Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) bail after investigations into alleged misappropriation and abuse of position involving a RM10 million investment, according to the source. The Datuk was released on October 5, while the Datuk Seri was released today, following their respective remand periods.

Upon their release, MACC seized luxury vehicles, high-powered motorcycles, luxury watches, bracelets, and cash totaling around RM36 million, along with freezing two personal bank accounts containing RM2 million.
