‘DATUK’, WHO ACTED AS RUNNER FOR MP IN TRANSFERRING BRIBE MONEY ARRESTED – WHILE 24-YEAR-OLD SON OF EX-TABUNG HAJI CHIEF DETAINED OVER GRAFT PROBE INTO HIS DAD’S DEALINGS

PUTRAJAYA – The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has arrested a vehicle broker with the title of ‘Datuk Indera’, to assist in an investigation into a corruption case involving a government project worth millions of ringgit.

The graft busters had on Wednesday obtained a six-day remand for the 40-year-old man until Oct 8.

The remand order was issued by Magistrate Shah Wira Abdul Halim.

According to a source, the suspect was believed to be a proxy for a member of parliament who was recently arrested by MACC.

The source also said he had acted as a ‘runner’ in transferring bribe money from contractor companies.

“Further investigations will be carried out by MACC under Section 16 of the MACC Act 2009.

“The suspect is the fourth person to be remanded since Sept 26 including the member of parliament in the investigation of the same case,” he added. – NST

MACC arrests Azeez’s son

THE Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has detained Baling lawmaker Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim’s son to facilitate investigations into graft allegations.

Azeez’s lawyer, K. Kumareandran, confirmed the arrest.

“Yes, I was told that the son was picked up to facilitate investigations,” the lawyer told The Malaysian Insight.

Meanwhile, a source close to Azeez said apart from his 24-year-old son, several other associates have also been arrested.

Those detained were allegedly named in companies linked to Azeez.

“Not just the son, but a few others were picked up, too,” the source said.

A source also said Azeez’s son acted as a runner.

Earlier today, Azeez, the former Tabung Haji chairman, was released on bail after his 10-day remand ended. Also released was his brother.

Azeez and his brother, Latiff, had been remanded since September 26.

Azeez, who is also an Umno Supreme Council member, was detained at the MACC headquarters on September 25.

In May, shortly after Pakatan Harapan won federal power, MACC raided three properties linked to Azeez – his homes in Subang Jaya, Selangor, and Baling, Kedah, as well as his office in Jalan Tun Razak, Kuala Lumpur.

A total of RM500,000 was seized, as well as at least 20 watches and almost RM1.2 million in Bangladeshi, Maldivian, Saudi Arabian and British currencies.

MACC has yet to issue an official statement on the latest arrests. THE MALAYSIAN INSIGHT
