KAJANG: A Datuk at a telecommunications company is among several corporate and business personalities under investigation by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for corruption and misuse of power.

Federal Territory MACC director Mohamad Yusoff Akope said the Datuk, who is in his 50s, was being probed over irregularities pertaining to procurement of tenders and projects. He has not been detained, he added.

“I cannot elaborate because it can jeopardise our investigations,” Mohamad Yusoff told reporters here yesterday.

He said 203 reports had been lodged with the Kuala Lumpur MACC office so far this year and investigation papers had been opened on 24 of the reports.

“Fifteen people have been detained, among others, for bribing public servants.”

The question is…who could it be?
