Court allows MACC to remand Malaysiakini reporter for four days over alleged bribery claims
PUTRAJAYA, March 1 — The Magistrate’s Court here today allowed the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to remand a reporter for investigations over alleged bribery claims involving RM20,000.
In a statement today, the MACC said it had detained this reporter over suspicion of soliciting and receiving bribes of around RM20,000 in exchange for retracting an uploaded article and not to further write about a foreign worker agency. The agency was alleged to be part of a syndicate.
“Order for remand for four days until March 4, 2025 towards the suspect was issued by Magistrate Beveniyah R Jothi, after an application made by MACC at the Magistrate’s Court in Putrajaya, this morning,” the statement said.
In this statement, the MACC did not name the news portal or the reporter.
However, Malaysiakini had previously confirmed that its reporter B Nantha Kumar was detained by MACC last night.
