KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has detained two directors and an employee of a private company for allegedly falsifying documents and criminal breach of trust, causing up to RM500,000 in losses.
The suspects, two men and a woman aged 40 to 60, were arrested in Shah Alam between 5pm and 9pm yesterday.
Sources said the suspects allegedly manipulated documents and issued false invoices, which led to the company incurring losses in the sales of gloves to another buyer.
The suspects were brought before Shah Alam magistrate Muhammad Syafiq Sulaiman, who allowed a two-day remand starting today.
MACC senior director of investigations Datuk Seri Hishamuddin Hashim confirmed the arrests and said the case was being investigated under Section 409 of the Penal Code for criminal breach of trust by a public servant or agent.
