The MACC has obtained a four-day remand order against a former top official from a government agency and the CEO of a private company today.
This is to facilitate investigations into allegations of abuse of power involving government contracts worth over RM99 million.
“The former chairperson of the government agency is suspected to have used his position as chairperson to recommend a company via direct tender to conduct a digital advertising campaign for the China market from 2018 to 2020 that would cost an estimated RM99 million from the agency’s budget,” an MACC source said.
The duo were brought to the Putrajaya Magistrate’s Court at about 9am today in orange MACC lockup uniforms, and were led away at about 10.20am.
It is understood that Magistrate Irza Zulaikha Rohanuddin presided over the remand proceeding and granted a remand until Jan 12.
