KUALA TERENGGANU – A headmistress has been remanded for six days in connection with false claims totaling RM1.3 million for food and drink supplies to hostel students.
The order to remand the 46-year-old woman was issued by magistrates’ court senior assistant registrar Yuhainis Mohd Roslan today.
A company manager and a supervisor, both 34, were also remanded for two days for further investigation into the same case under Section 18 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009.
Yesterday, Bernama reported that the MACC arrested four individuals believed to be involved in making false claims involving a supply contract worth RM1.3 million from 2022 to 2023 for 100 students of a primary school in Terengganu, while the actual number of students was only 35.
However, another individual, the chief administrative assistant, was released on MACC bail following health problems. – February 6, 2024
