Its secretary Hanafi Mamat said Kelantan Umno was confident the investigation against the 69-year-old woman would not affect the party.
“In this case, the individual involved still holds her position as the division’s Wanita head, and we will look at the outcome of the investigation before taking any action,” he told reporters after chairing the technical committee meeting on Umno’s 71st anniversary celebration at Bangunan Umno Negeri here.
On Thursday, MACC recorded the statement of a former deputy president of the Malaysian Islamic Economic Development Foundation (Yapeim), who is also Wanita Umno division head in the state, for alleged misappropriation of funds during the Rompin parliamentary by-election in 2015.
On Umno’s anniversary celebration at the state-level, Hanafi said a flag run, cycling, walking, and additional programmes such as prayers, nasyid recitals, speeches, orations, patriotic songs as well as talks on current issues would be held to celebrate the event.
