WHAT HAS ISMAIL SABRI BEEN UP TO? ADDITIONAL RM2.6MIL IN CASH & GOLD SEIZED IN MACC PROBE ON MINISTRY SEC-GEN

PETALING JAYA – More gold and cash worth an estimated RM2.6mil have been recovered in relation to the arrest of Datuk Mohd Arif Ab Rahman (pic), the secretary-general of a federal ministry.
Sources said a team of graft busters went to open up a safe deposit box in a bank on Thursday and seized about 8kg worth of gold valued at RM1.6mil.
In addition, several other safe deposit boxes from another few banks also saw the seizure of RM1mil worth of cash, including AUD80,000.
“We also towed back a multi-purpose vehicle – a Toyota Estima – owned by the suspect’s son from his house in Subang Jaya.
“Our records showed that there are more than 10 plots of land registered under the family’s name around the Klang Valley region,” added the source.
The value of the land has yet to be determined and the MACC was still checking if the properties were amassed through corrupt ways.
The MACC will also be liasing with the Inland Revenue Board to ascertain if the Datuk had evaded paying any taxes since 2010.
MACC deputy chief commissioner (operations) Datuk Azam Baki said so far, no new arrests had been made.
Azam said however, more witnesses would be sought to assist in the probe.
On Wednesday, the MACC arrested Mohd Arif at his home just as he was about to leave for work.
Azam confirmed the arrest of the serving Rural and Regional Development Ministry secretary-general by his officers.
Mohd Arif was nabbed at his home in USJ3, Subang Jaya, while his two sons were arrested at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya after they were called in for questioning.
Officers who conducted a 12-hour search at Mohd Arif’s house found gold bars, 150 luxury handbags, branded watches and foreign currencies.
The gold bars and Australian and Euro currencies seized were estimated at RM3mil.
The designer handbags were from brands such as Chanel, Hermes, Dior,
Louis Vuitton and Gucci.
Prices for some of these bags range from RM7,000 to RM100,000 each.
