Corporate mafia task force’s terms of reference to go before Cabinet next week, says Fahmi

A special task force will present its terms of reference to the Malaysian Cabinet next week to investigate allegations of a "corporate mafia," according to Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil.

The task force, led by the Attorney General, aims to complete the investigation and disclose its findings within three months, as announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

The investigation follows Bloomberg reports alleging that a group plotted hostile takeovers of companies linked to government tender projects, with claims involving unnamed Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and police officers.

PUTRAJAYA, Oct 23 — The terms of reference for a special task force investigating allegations of a “corporate mafia” will be presented to the Cabinet next week, Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil said today.

He said the task force’s findings would be made public within three months of the completion of the investigation, in line with Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s announcement in Parliament earlier this week.

“The Prime Minister also informed the Cabinet that the terms of reference for the special task force that will investigate the findings related to the corporate mafia issue will be presented at next week’s Cabinet meeting,” Fahmi said at his weekly post-Cabinet press conference here.

Anwar said in Parliament on Tuesday that he had instructed a special task force led by the Attorney General to finalise its investigation and publicly disclose its findings within three months.

The investigation follows allegations of a purported “corporate mafia” reported by Bloomberg, which cited dozens of unnamed sources, including individuals purported to be serving Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and police officers.

The reports alleged that a group had plotted hostile takeovers of companies linked to projects awarded through government tenders.

据通讯部长拿督斯里法米·法兹尔称，一个特别工作组将于下周向马来西亚内阁提交其职权范围，以调查有关“企业黑手党”的指控。

由总检察长领导的特别工作组的目标是在三个月内完成调查并公布调查结果，正如首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣宣布的那样。

彭博社报道称，一个团伙密谋恶意收购与政府招标项目相关的公司，并指控涉及未具名的马来西亚反贪污委员会（MACC）和警察官员，随后展开了调查。

布城，10月23日讯——通讯部长拿督斯里法米·法兹尔今日表示，负责调查“企业黑手党”指控的特别工作组的职权范围将于下周提交内阁。

他表示，特别工作组的调查结果将在调查结束后三个月内公布，这与首相拿督斯里安华·易卜拉欣本周早些时候在国会宣布的计划一致。

法赫米在每周例行的内阁会后新闻发布会上表示：“总理还告知内阁，负责调查企业黑手党问题相关调查结果的特别工作组的职权范围将在下周的内阁会议上提出。”

安华周二在国会表示，他已指示由总检察长领导的特别工作组在三个月内完成调查并公开披露调查结果。

此次调查源于彭博社报道的所谓“企业黑手党”指控，该报道援引了数十名匿名消息人士的话，其中包括据称在马来西亚反贪污委员会 (MACC) 和警察部门任职的人员。
