KUALA LUMPUR – The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) will be applying for a remand order against Mohd Hussein Mohd Nasir, dubbed “Datuk Roy”.
The anti-graft agency is expected to head to the magistrates’ court today to submit the application.
The wanted 54-year-old, who was wanted by the MACC, turned himself in yesterday, reported The Star.
It was reported that Hussein had been charged and sentenced to jail on a corruption offence.
He was also said to be a key planner in a corruption case involving soliciting and taking bribes amounting to RM400,000 to avoid investigation into the Jana Wibawa programme.
Earlier, the MACC had picked up one of its own officers and three other individuals, including a woman, who was released on bail. The three other suspects are remanded until today.
