KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC), in a reference to media reports, confirmed in a statement that it had received information on 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) from Umno Batu Kawan Deputy Chief Khairuddin Abu Hassan.
“The information received is the same as contained in a police report lodged by him on the company,” said Mohd Shukri Abdull, MACC Deputy Chief Commissioner (Operations), in the statement.
“MACC will call Khairuddin to obtain additional information before making a decision whether there’s any basis to launch an investigation under the MACC Act 2009.”
MACC pledged to act transparently and professionally on 1MDB under the MACC Act 2009.
Khairuddin lodged the police report on December 12 last year. He has since said in a statement that he’s thinking of leaving Umno.
1MDB, the sovereign wealth fund, has been dogged by controversy over several of its investments abroad which have reportedly gone sour. It has also missed debt repayment schedules several times.
New 1MDB Chief Arul Kanda, in a statement inviting critics to a dialogue, said most of the statements on the company in the media were purely speculative with little regard for the facts and the actual situation.
