NFC-linked 'datuk' to be charged today



The 45-year-old “datuk” who is alleged to have attempted to bribe
several police officers following the National Feedlot Corporation
(NFC) fiasco is expected to be charged this afternoon at the Jalan Duta Court.

A senior Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC) official confirmed that the person, whose remand ends today will be charged.

“If there is no changes, the person is scheduled to be charged,” said the MACC officer.

The businessperson who owns several companies including a limousine service outlet was remanded by the police and handed to the MACC on Dec 22.

NFC chairperson Mohamad Salleh Ismail, has denied that the “datuk” was related to him or his wife Women, Family and Community Development Minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil.

The NFC fiasco grabbed national attention following the 2010
Auditor-General’s Report saying that NFC had failed to comply with the objectives of its formation after a loan of RM250 million was given by the government.
