Contractor fined RM20,000 after pleading guilty to using fake documents for RM5m Felda project

In Johor Bahru, a 50-year-old contractor, Wan Shahrinizam Wan Ibrahim, was fined RM20,000 by the Sessions Court after pleading guilty to using false documents in a RM5 million Felda project bid.

The charges included submitting fabricated bank statements and a fake tender acceptance letter through the Felda e-Procurement System.

Kanageswari ordered a fine, with a potential prison sentence if unpaid, which the accused settled.

The case was prosecuted by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's deputy public prosecutor, Irna Julieza Maaras.

JOHOR BAHRU, Sept 8 — A 50-year-old contractor was fined RM20,000 by the Sessions Court here today after pleading guilty to two charges of using false documents to obtain a road resurfacing and drainage upgrade project under a Felda scheme worth RM5 million about three years ago.

Wan Shahrinizam Wan Ibrahim pleaded guilty to the two charges after they were read to him through an interpreter before Judge N. Kanageswari.

Kanageswari imposed a fine of RM20,000 for the two charges and ordered the accused to serve three months in prison for each charge if he failed to pay the fine.

The accused paid the fine.

According to the first charge, Wan Shahrinizam dishonestly used a document he knew to be false as genuine, namely bank account statements for November 2022 to January 2023 belonging to a company, which he instructed an officer to submit through the Felda e-Procurement System.

The documents were submitted as part of an application for a RM5 million project to resurface a village road and upgrade the drainage system at Felda Ciku 3, Gua Musang, Kelantan.

For the second charge, the accused dishonestly submitted documents he knew to be fake as genuine, namely a Letter of Acceptance of Tender for resurfacing works with premix and repairs to the drainage system at Jalan Parit Yaani and Parit Botak, Batu Pahat, as well as related works.

He had instructed the same officer to submit the documents through the same system for the same application.

A Letter of Acceptance of Tender is a formal written notice sent by a project owner or client to a contractor confirming that their bid or tender has been successful and creating a legally binding contract.

Wan Shahrinizam was charged with committing the offences at premises in Jalan Watan, Taman Desa 3, Parit Setongkat, Muar, in February 2023.

He was charged under Section 471 of the Penal Code (Act 574) for fraudulently or dishonestly using a forged document as genuine, an offence punishable under Section 465 of the same Code.

The offence carries a maximum jail term of two years, or a fine, or both upon conviction.

However, the court accepted the representation as a Take Into Consideration (TIC) against another related charge submitted by lawyers Azalea Nazihah and Muhammad Denial under Section 171A of the Criminal Procedure Code (CPC).

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) deputy public prosecutor Irna Julieza Maaras appeared for the prosecution.

新山，9月8日讯——一名50岁的承包商今天在新山地方法庭认罪，承认使用虚假文件骗取了约三年前联邦土地发展局（Felda）一项价值500万令吉的道路重铺和排水升级工程项目，并被罚款2万令吉。

在法官 N. Kanageswari 面前，通过翻译向 Wan Shahrinizam Wan Ibrahim 宣读了这两项指控后，他认罪了。

根据第一项指控，Wan Shahrinizam 故意使用他明知是伪造的文件作为真品，即属于某公司的 2022 年 11 月至 2023 年 1 月的银行账户对账单，并指示一名官员通过 Felda 电子采购系统提交该文件。
