The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) detained four individuals, including a Datuk Seri, for allegedly submitting false claims worth approximately RM360 million. The suspects, three men and one woman aged between 50 and 70, were arrested between 4 and 6 PM yesterday at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya. Initial investigations suggest they submitted fraudulent claims between 2016 and 2017 related to sukuk funds for a RM1.3 billion highway construction project in the Klang Valley.
The claims were allegedly made to obtain illegal payments for the infrastructure project. The case is being investigated under Section 18 of the MACC Act 2009, and the suspects will be brought to the Putrajaya Magistrate’s Court for a remand application.
