The Bera MP arrived at 9.54am for the anti-graft agency to resume questioning him as a suspect in an investigation into four of his former senior officers.
Ismail declared his assets to MACC on Feb 10 and was first questioned by the agency on Feb 19.
He was also called in for questioning last Thursday and Friday, this Monday as well as yesterday, for around six hours each day.
Ismail, who collapsed at home on Feb 22 and was hospitalised for blood pressure-related problems, could not attend two previously scheduled sessions with MACC on March 5 and 7 after being issued medical certificates by his doctor.
MACC is investigating the discovery of about RM170 million in cash and 16kg of gold bars worth millions of ringgit, seized in raids at the residences of the four officers and three other premises believed to be “safe houses”.
Yesterday, MACC chief Azam Baki said a money changer had been arrested as part of the probe into Ismail.
He also hinted that the questioning of Ismail was not likely to end any time soon. - FMT
