JOHOR BARU, Jan 11 — A 53-year-old owner of a printing company is under a corruption investigation over a claim he filed to the government in relation to the supply of learning materials to a secondary school two years ago.The man was arrested at the state Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters here about 5pm yesterday, after anti-graft investigators recorded his statement in connection to the case.

“It is understood that in 2021, the suspect submitted false claims to a secondary school in a district in Johor in connection with the supply of printed learning modules for the use of its students.



“However, the supply of printed learning modules for students was not carried out,” an MACC source told Malay Mail on condition of anonymity.

The amount of the claims filed is said to be over RM100,000.

Johor MACC director Datuk Azmi Alias confirmed the arrest when contacted.

He said the man is being investigated under Section 18 of the MACC Act 2009.



Section 18 of the Act involves any person providing documents such as receipts or invoices that are false and contains false details with the intention to deceive the principle.

The MACC is expected to seek a remand order on the man at the Magistrate’s Court here later today for further questioning.
