RM1m to look the other way? Two enforcement officers among five nabbed in Johor MACC graft probe

JOHOR BAHRU, Oct 28 — The Johor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has remanded five individuals, including two federal enforcement agency officers, on suspicion of soliciting and receiving about RM1 million in bribes from a foreign worker agency.

Johor MACC director Datuk Hazrul Shazreen Abd Yazid said a five-day remand order until November 1 was issued by Magistrate A. Dhilip Nair at the Johor Bahru Court Complex here today, after allowing an application by the commission.

He said the other three individuals detained were foreign worker agents.

“The five suspects, comprising three men and two women, aged between their 40s and 60s, were detained between 10am and 4pm yesterday in operations conducted in Selangor and Johor.

“Preliminary investigations found that all the suspects were believed to have conspired to solicit and receive bribes in return for not taking enforcement action against foreign workers under the agency’s supervision,” he said in a statement today.

Hazrul Shazreen said the alleged offences were believed to have been committed between 2018 and 2025, involving 44 online money transfers totalling about RM1 million during that period.

He said the case was being investigated under Sections 16(a)(B) and 16(b)(B) of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009, following an operation conducted by the MACC Intelligence Division. — Bernama

新山，10月28日讯——柔佛州马来西亚反贪污委员会（MACC）已拘留五人，其中包括两名联邦执法机构官员，他们涉嫌向一家外籍劳工中介机构索取并收受约100万令吉的贿赂。

柔佛州反贪污委员会主任拿督哈兹鲁·沙兹林·阿卜杜勒·亚兹德表示，今天柔佛新山法庭地方法官A·迪利普·奈尔批准了委员会的申请，并签发了为期五天的还押令，直至11月1日。

他说，被拘留的另外三人是外籍劳工中介。

“昨天上午 10 点至下午 4 点，在雪兰莪州和柔佛州开展的行动中，五名嫌疑人（三男两女，年龄在 40 多岁到 60 多岁之间）被拘留。

“初步调查发现，所有嫌疑人都被认为串谋索取和收受贿赂，以换取不对受该机构监管的外国劳工采取执法行动，”他今天在一份声明中说。

哈兹鲁·沙兹林表示，这些涉嫌犯罪行为据信发生在 2018 年至 2025 年期间，涉及 44 笔网上转账，总额约为 100 万令吉。
