KUALA LUMPUR: The managing director of a property development government-linked company (GLC) was among four detained on suspicion of abetting in false claims relating to a development project on the east coast worth RM300 million.
The three others detained were a company director, a project manager and the architect of a contracting and consultancy company.
A Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) source said all the suspects remanded were aged between 28 and 48.
“Three of them were held at the Terengganu MACC office while another was picked up from a house in the federal capital yesterday at about noon.
“All suspects have been remanded for six days from today until June 22 after magistrate Noor Mazrinie Mahmood allowed the remand application by MACC at the Kuala Terengganu magistrates’ court today,” the source said.
MACC senior investigation director Hishamuddin Hashim confirmed the arrest of the suspects.
