Kuala lumpur: A former chairman of Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) and a former secretary-general of the Treasury arrived at the Magistrate's Court here today for remand proceedings related to the investigation following the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on the institution. Both men, in their 60s, arrived at 9.31 am wearing the orange attire of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).

According to BERNAMA News Agency, a former TH chief executive officer was also seen at the court. This individual had previously been remanded on August 21. Yesterday, MACC Chief Commissioner Datuk Seri Abd Halim Aman confirmed that the two men were detained at 4 pm after presenting themselves at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya to assist with the investigation.

The TH RCI report, which was made public on July 29, documented management and operational weaknesses involving the institution between 2014 and 2020. It identified several problematic investments requiring a forensic audit and highlighted evidence of suspicious transactions and the concealment of information.
