MACC, police probe MyEG, Zetrix over JPJ arrears
The two enforcement agencies will share information with one another as they investigate the RM314 million arrears owed to JPJ.
The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is investigating MyEG Sdn Bhd and Zetrix AI Bhd for RM314 million in unpaid fees to the road transport department (JPJ), according to an official complaint received last Wednesday. The MACC will collaborate with the police to share information under their respective jurisdictions to probe the matter.
The police will report any potential corruption to the MACC for further action. The anti-graft agency emphasized its commitment to investigating the case independently, fairly, and in accordance with the law. MyEG and Zetrix, previously known as MyEG Services Bhd, were suspended as JPJ's collection agents for fees and summonses due to their arrears dating back to May.
Transport Minister Loke Siew Fook disclosed that Zetrix owes JPJ RM314 million, having received 35 payment notices. Despite submitting a cheque for RM231 million in August, the bank could not process it on Zetrix's request. Zetrix subsequently submitted a proposal to rectify the arrears, prioritizing the resolution of obligations to restore its suspended services.
