Over in Alor Setar, the DID director and two company owners were remanded for a week by the magistrate's court.

Lower Court senior assistant registrar Wan Nor Fadzilah Wan Daud granted the remand application by the MACC beginning today until February 5th.

The 60-year-old director and the two company owners, aged 39 and 50, were arrested between 12.30pm and 6pm yesterday at the state MACC office upon turning up to assist the investigation.

It is learnt that the director had been leading a lavish lifestyle since 2014 from kickbacks received from contractors awarded with projects by the department.

The MACC revealed the man had been pocketing 10% of the projects’ cost between 2014 and last year, as kickbacks from the contractors.

The two businessmen, are being probed for allegedly abetting the director in committing the offences.
