Rafizi promises to expose companies used to launder LCS money

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: PKR deputy president Rafizi Ramli says he will expose the scandal involving the misappropriation of funds in the RM6 billion littoral combat ship (LCS) project within a month.

Taking to Facebook, Rafizi said he would reveal all the irregularities in the project, including the establishment of shell companies to launder money.

“I will expose all the irregularities, one by one,” he said.

Rafizi was responding to a post by former prime minister Najib Razak, who claimed that Pakatan Harapan had halted the project after coming to power in 2018, effectively delaying the construction of the ships.

The project has come under much scrutiny after the Public Accounts Committee (PAC), Parliament’s watchdog, recently said not a single ship had been completed despite the government spending RM6 billion since 2011.
