The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has detained the managing director of a company for allegedly using fake documents to secure a government tender worth RM22 million in July 2018.
A source from Kedah MACC told Bernama that the 33-year-old man was detained at a restaurant in Kajang, Selangor, at noon yesterday.
“The suspect used documents containing false details by ordering and forcing two of his staff to produce forged bank statements to bid for cleaning works at a government department in Kedah worth RM22 million,” he said, adding that the company secured the project that same year.
The suspect has been remanded for seven days.
Kedah MACC director Shaharom Nizam Abd Manap confirmed the matter.
