PETALING JAYA: Aman Palestin is giving the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission three days to unfreeze their bank accounts or risk legal action.
At a press conference, the NGO’s lawyer, Rafique Rashid said if the MACC fails to comply:
“We will take the matter to court.”
On Thursday, the anti-graft agency froze 41 bank accounts belonging to Aman Palestin and several other companies – which had a combined total of RM15.8 million – as part of an investigation into the alleged misappropriation of RM70 million by the NGO.
The investigation involves claims that the NGO funnelled the money into these companies.
The case is being probed under the MACC Act 2009, the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 (Amla), and the Penal Code.
