FMT ALERT
PETALING JAYA: PKR today disclosed alleged wrongdoings of former central banker Murad Khalid in a move to bring his claim that Anwar Ibrahim has RM3 billion stashed in a personal “master account” into disrepute.
Party strategic director Rafizi Ramli told a press conference here that his “personal investigation” found the former Bank Negara assistant governor to have a corrupt track record.
Murad, now retired, was said to have received “incentives” in the form of golf club membership when he was with the central bank in 1991 and had his house insurance worth RM3.1 million paid for by a third party.
He was also accused of profiting from 15 units of Pelangi Indah Condominiums through Kenworth Sdn Bhd, a company said to be closely linked to him.
“If his own track record is marred by allegations of corruption and abuse of power, this creates doubts over his statutory declaration [against Anwar],” Rafizi said.
The SD, stating that the PKR de facto chief controlled over 20 master accounts involving assets, shares and cash valued in excess of RM3 billion, was penned by Murad during the political upheaval in the late 1990s following Anwar’s sacking as deputy prime minister.
