SHAH ALAM: A former general manager of a real estate investment holding company is on remand for two days until tomorrow on suspicion of abusing his position to secure benefits and rewards.
Magistrate Wan Noora Nisa Ngadirin issued the remand order against the man, who is in his 30s, following an application by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) at the Shah Alam Magistrate’s Court here.
According to a source, the suspect was arrested at about 2 pm yesterday at the Selangor MACC office.
“Preliminary investigations revealed that the suspect allegedly committed the offence between 2023 and 2025 when he was the General Manager of the company.
