A source says the anti-graft agency took documents from the economic planning and development department.




PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission today seized documents linked to the sale of 64 lots of Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) land between 2014 and 2018, a source in Malaysia’s largest city council confirmed.

According to the source, a team from the anti-graft agency arrived at 2pm and spent three hours in the Economic Planning and Development Department at the DBKL headquarters in Jalan Raja Laut, in the federal capital, while staff sorted out the documents.

“They took some files, I can’t say how many, but they are related to the sale of land,” the source told FMT.

The raid by the MACC comes days after Mayor Amin Nordin Abd Aziz confirmed that officials were paying daily visits to City Hall to investigate land deals made under former Federal Territories (FT) minister Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor’s purview.

Last month, Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng claimed City Hall sold 64 lots of land worth RM4.28 billion since 2013 without any open tender.

Lim said most of the buyers had yet to pay the land premium even though buildings had been constructed and sold, and many had not paid development charges either.

The DAP MP also said Amin had told him that the land had been sold to raise money for City Hall’s operations.

Meanwhile, Amin said DBKL will give its full cooperation to MACC as it had “nothing to hide”.
