The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is currently investigating 20 development projects initiated by Selangor Menteri Besar Incorporated (MBI) over suspicions of corrupt activities, according to Chief Commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki. This investigation follows a corruption case related to a sand mining concession that implicates a prominent Selangor politician.
While Azam did not specify which projects are under scrutiny, he clarified that the case is unrelated to the current Selangor administration. The MACC is also investigating five companies believed to be linked to two individuals recently arrested in connection with the case, including a former MBI chief operating officer and a businessman.
Azam stated that over 18 individuals have already provided statements, and more arrests or summonses may follow. He emphasized that the investigation is not politically motivated and is based on public interest complaints.
The investigation is ongoing, and further developments will depend on the progress made by the MACC’s investigative team
