Former Tabung Haji chairman Abdul Azeez to be charged tomorrow over RCI-linked probe

Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim, former chairman of Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH), is set to be charged under the MACC Act 2009 at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court.

This follows a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report, which called for a forensic audit of TH's investment decisions leading to asset value decline.

The report identified suspicious transactions and undisclosed information but did not address ongoing restructuring and recovery efforts.

Abdul Azeez and a former Treasury secretary-general were previously remanded to assist in investigations.

KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 8 — Former Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) chairman Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim will be charged at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court tomorrow under the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009.

A check of the court system showed that Abdul Azeez, a former Baling MP, is scheduled to be charged before Judge Azura Alwi at 9 am.

On Aug 27, the former TH chairman and former Treasury secretary-general were each remanded for seven days, until Sept 2, to assist investigations following disclosures related to the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on the institution.

Both individuals are being investigated under Section 23(1) of the MACC Act 2009.

The RCI report on TH, published on the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (JAKIM) official portal on July 29, recommended, among other measures, a forensic audit to examine past investment decision-making that led to a significant decline in the institution’s asset value.

The RCI report, which examined TH’s management and operations between 2014 and 2020, also identified investments requiring a forensic audit.

The report also found suspicious transactions and concealed information.

The RCI investigated issues involving TH, drawing on findings by PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, and Roland Berger, but did not cover the restructuring and recovery plans being implemented at the time. — Bernama
