Big haul: Seized items from the Customs Department officers, who were detained to assist in a corruption probe and believed to have caused leakages of RM3.5bil in Port Klang, include RM4.4mil in cash.
MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki did not rule out more arrests following the latest detention of Customs officers and seizures. He said the MACC is also working closely with the Attorney General’s Chamber to get approval to expand its investigations across the Causeway. Sources with knowledge of the probe against the syndicate, which graft investigators had named “Kontena Terbang”, said that 12 bank accounts under companies and individuals with money amounting to RM2mil had been frozen.
“These are some of the items which MACC investigators have managed to detect and seize so far,” the source added.
