SHAH ALAM:
The Selangor government has handed over all documents related to the land issues in Ijok to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), said Menteri Besar Mohamed Azmin Ali.

He said the documents were handed over to the MACC a few months ago following reports lodged by several non-governmental organisations demanding investigations be carried out into the issues.

”The state government has given its full cooperation. Now let’s wait for the investigation findings,” he told reporters yesterday.

Azmin said this in response to Barisan Nasional (BN) Strategic Communication director Abdul Rahman Dahlan’s remark on Wednesday, urging the menteri besar to explain why the state government “hastily” returned the disputed land worth RM1.18 billion in Ijok to two housing developers.

Abdul Rahman said the action raised questions because both the High Court and Court of Appeal had, in 2013 and 2014 respectively, ruled that the land belonged to the Selangor government.
