Rayer told reporters outside the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission office that officers will be done by “this evening”.

Lim came in for a second day of questioning today at 10am and left for lunch at 1.30pm. He was expected to return at 2.30pm.

Yesterday, MACC officers completed their questioning of Lim’s wife, Betty Chew, over the span of about seven hours.

Tasek Gelugor MP Shabudin Yahaya had first brought up the RM2.8 million bungalow purchase during a Dewan Rakyat sitting in March.

He claimed that Lim had purchased his bungalow from businesswoman Phang Li Koon below the market price, with similar properties in the area priced between RM6 million and RM6.5 million.

Lim then said there was no wrongdoing in the bungalow purchase as the price was determined on a “willing-buyer-willing-seller” basis.

Phang was later linked to Kuala Lumpur International Dental Centre Sdn Bhd, a company which had purchased a plot of land in Taman Manggis from the state government for RM11.5 million.

In a statutory declaration, Phang said she has no links with the Taman Manggis land purchase nor the company that owns it.
