The suspect is accused of soliciting and receiving bribes from a contractor in exchange for helping secure RM95 million in road maintenance projects.
In Shah Alam, a former employee of a federal government-linked company (GLC) was brought to the magistrates' court this morning for a remand application. According to MACC sources, the individual is accused of soliciting and receiving approximately RM3 million in bribes from a contractor. The bribes were allegedly exchanged for assistance in securing road maintenance projects for about RM95 million at electrical substations dispersed throughout Peninsular Malaysia.
Preliminary investigations revealed that the suspect allegedly committed the offenses between 2023 and 2025. He allegedly used procurement and contractor appointment documents to persuade the contractor's director. The suspect, in his forties, was apprehended at noon yesterday after arriving at the Selangor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) office to provide a statement.
Magistrate Wan Noora Nisa Ngadirin granted a five-day remand, set to expire on November 16, following MACC's application at the Shah Alam magistrates' court this morning.
Selangor MACC director Azwan Ramli confirmed that the case is being investigated under Section 16(a)(B) of the MACC Act 2009.
