KUALA LUMPUR – The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has recorded the statements of seven individuals to assist investigations into allegations of wrongdoing and integrity issues involving several senior officers of Majlis Amanah Rakyat (Mara). 

MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said the individuals called up included employees from Mara, Mara Corporation (Mara Corp), and a corporate secretarial company that is involved.

“MACC will call several other individuals from these three entities to have their statements recorded,” he said last night.

He however refused to divulge the number of individuals to be called up to give their statements.

Asked if he had received any reports of wrongdoing involving Mara Corp executive director Datuk Suhaili Abdul Rahman, who is alleged to have used the company’s corporate credit card, Azam said that no report had been received.

He, however, said that MACC’s investigation so far is only on issues of wrongdoing and integrity involving senior officers of Mara and Mara Corp.

Last Saturday, MACC confirmed receiving a report on issues of integrity involving several senior officers of Mara, who are being investigated internally by the agency. – Bernama, February 9, 2022
