TAWAU, Aug 7 — Two company owners believed to have used fake documents for cheating to secure maintenance work worth over RM1.1 million were arrested by Sabah’s Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).
According to a source, the two men, in their 40s, were arrested when they appeared at the MACC Tawau branch office at about 2pm today.
It was understood the suspects were believed to have used false documents in 2020 to obtain maintenance work under the 2020 economic stimulus package.
Meanwhile, Sabah MACC director Datuk S. Karunanithy when contacted, confirmed the arrests and added the suspects were later released on MACC bail.
He said they will be charged under Section 471 of the Penal Code at the Tawau Sessions Court on Wednesday.
