Former Felda GM in court for remand as MACC investigates project, land deal

A former Felda general manager appeared in the Magistrate's Court in connection to an abuse of power investigation related to a developer's appointment for a capital project and the sale of Felda land.

This stems from the wider investigation termed 'Ops Fella,' initiated by MACC, targeting misappropriations and corrupt practices within Felda and its subsidiary, Felda Investment Corporation, from 2010 to 2020.

The investigation encompasses multiple transactions, including investments and property acquisitions in Malaysia and London.

A total of seven investigation papers have been opened, addressing various alleged irregularities and corruption cases.

PUTRAJAYA, Sept 7 — A former Felda general manager was brought to the Magistrate’s Court here today to face remand proceedings in connection with an abuse of power investigation involving the appointment of a developer for a project in the capital, as well as the sale of land owned by the statutory body.

The man, in his late 60s, arrived at 9.15am in a Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) vehicle, wearing a green collared shirt.

He was detained at 4pm yesterday together with a man in his 50s after they were asked to appear at the MACC headquarters here to have their statements recorded.

Last week, MACC opened seven investigation papers into allegations of misappropriation, abuse of power and corruption involving Felda and its subsidiary, Felda Investment Corporation Sdn Bhd (FIC).

MACC chief commissioner Datuk Seri Abd Halim Aman was reported as saying that the large-scale special investigation, ‘Ops Fella’, focused on investment transactions and asset acquisitions by the management of Felda and FIC over 10 years from 2010 to 2020.

Of the seven investigation papers, six new papers were opened on Aug 24, while the remaining one is an old investigation paper that remains active and is undergoing the Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA) process.

The investigation papers cover issues involving the investment in Syarikat Tataran Aras Sdn Bhd, based in Limbang, Sarawak; the acquisition of Grand Borneo Hotel Sdn Bhd in Sabah; and the purchase of Grand Plaza Service Apartments in London.

The investigation also focuses on the establishment of Felda Wellness Corporation Sdn Bhd, the acquisition of Felda House and Grand Felda House, as well as alleged misappropriation in the development of the Kuala Lumpur Vertical City (KLVC) project.

An old investigation paper involving the Park City Grand Plaza property, which remains open and is currently undergoing the MLA process, is also being reviewed in parallel. — Bernama

这源于马来西亚反贪污委员会发起的名为“Ops Fella”的更广泛调查，该调查旨在查明2010年至2020年期间联邦土地发展局及其子公司联邦土地发展投资公司内部的挪用公款和腐败行为。

在七份调查文件中，六份是 8 月 24 日新立案的，而剩下的一份是旧的调查文件，目前仍然有效，正在接受司法互助 (MLA) 程序。

调查文件涵盖了以下问题：对位于砂拉越林梦的 Syarikat Tataran Aras Sdn Bhd 进行投资；收购沙巴的 Grand Borneo Hotel Sdn Bhd；以及购买伦敦的 Grand Plaza Service Apartments。
