On October 7, two corporate figures with the titles of Datuk Seri and Datuk Wira were released on bail by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC). These brothers were previously remanded for five days to aid investigations into alleged abuse of power and irregularities involving an investment of approximately RM10 million.
The suspect with the 'Datuk Wira' title was released on Monday after his remand period concluded, while the other sibling, holding the 'Datuk Seri' title, was released today following the termination of his extended remand period by two days.
On October 1, both men, aged in their 40s and 50s, were initially detained and remanded for five days after presenting themselves at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya to offer their statements. According to sources, MACC authorities also seized 15 luxury cars, valued at around RM31 million in total, 12 high-powered motorcycles worth approximately RM5 million, five luxury watches, three bracelets, and about RM30,000 in cash.
Furthermore, the assets of two personal bank accounts, containing roughly RM2 million, were frozen by the commission.
Upon being contacted by Bernama, MACC Chief Commissioner Datuk Seri Abd Halim Aman confirmed the release of the suspects on bail.
