Bukit Aman commercial CID director Ramli Yoosuf said the first three suspects, aged 30 to 48, were nabbed at around 1pm today. Meanwhile, the fourth suspect, a lawyer was arrested this evening.

Two of the suspects are women in their early 30s, who worked for i-Serve Online Mall Sdn Bhd. The third suspect, a 48-year-old man, sits on the MYAirline board of directors.

The fourth suspect is believed to be a lawyer for i-Serve. The 62-year-old man was arrested in Bukit Tunku, Kuala Lumpur and taken to Bukit Aman.

“We will apply for the suspects to be remanded tomorrow,” he said in a statement.

Their arrest comes days after police nabbed a man in his 40s, who is a shareholder in i-Serve.

Last month, i-Serve, along with six affiliated companies, was fined by Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) for operating without a proper licence for accepting deposits.

Goh Hwan Hua, the co-founder of the budget airline and its majority shareholder, is also one of i-Serve’s shareholders.

Goh, along with two family members were arrested last week and are being investigated under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.

They were arrested at their residence in Shah Alam, Selangor, on Oct 17, and police subsequently held Goh for six days on remand and his family members for four days.

Goh also owns private firms Zillion Wealth and Trillion Cove Holdings, which have stakes of 88% and 10%, respectively, in the airline.

According to Ramli, two of the suspects arrested today were also involved with Trillion Cove Holdings, as members of the company’s board of directors.
