The Johor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has detained a managing director of a company and an engineer for allegedly submitting false claims worth more than RM250,000 for a temporary bridge construction project in Segamat, six years ago.
According to a source, the men, aged 41 and 52, were picked up at the MACC office in Johor Bahru about 7pm yesterday.
It is understood that between 2016 and 2020, the two individuals had conspired in submitting false claims to a government department in the Segamat district, for a temporary bridge construction project worth more than RM4 million, but the works mentioned in the claims had not been implemented.
Meanwhile, Johor MACC director Azmi Alias, when contacted, confirmed the arrests.
The suspects were brought to the Johor Bahru Magistrate’s Court for a remand application this morning.
