KUALA TERENGGANU: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has arrested an administrative officer of a public university in Terengganu over an investigation into bribery involving RM10,500.
The 40-year-old officer has been remanded for seven days beginning yesterday after the MACC obtained an order from the Kuala Terengganu Sessions/Magistrate’s Court assistant registrar, Wan Aziantie Wan Ab Karim @ Isa.
The MACC arrested the officer today while recording a statement on the case at the Kuala Terengganu MACC office at 5.10pm.
A MACC source said the suspect had allegedly solicited the bribe from two contractors as an inducement to select their companies for supply works at the university in 2017 and 2018. –Bernama
