Air force clerk in court over RM11,459 in false medical claims
KUALA LUMPUR: A wheelchair-bound air force clerk was charged in the Sessions Court here with seven counts of making RM11,459 in false medical claims.
Siti Nor Hakiki Abdullah, 38, was accused of cheating air logistics office administrative officer Siti Kartika Sari Mohamad Salleh by submitting seven medical expenses forms to make the claims with false information on non-existent medicine.
She allegedly committed the offence at the air logistics office at the Defence Ministry here between Aug 12 and Dec 10, 2013.
Siti Nor Hakiki claimed trial before judge Allaudeen Ismail after the charges were read to her Tuesday.
Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission DPP Siti Syakimah Ibrahim offered bail at RM10,000 with one surety and applied for the passport of the accused to be surrendered to the court.
In asking for a lower bail, Siti Nor Hakiki said she suffers from slipped disc and is the sole breadwinner of the family, supporting her mother and two children because her husband is jobless.
Allaudeen fixed bail at RM6,000 with one surety and ordered the accused to surrender her passport.
The court set July 26 for mention.
