KUALA LUMPUR: Officers from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) have arrived in groups at the Felda Global Ventures Holdings Bhd (FGV) headquarters here to seize documents pertaining to its investigation on the company.
The documents are believed to be linked to investigations over alleged irregular transactions involving the company.
Five MACC officers first arrived at 10am followed by groups of three, 10 and six people, all in uniform.
They were all escorted by auxiliary police to the FGV office on the 45th floor.
The team only left Menara Felda at 6pm, bringing with them four boxes and three briefcases containing documents in relations to the issue.
The nine-hour operation was said to have covered three floors of the building.
MACC's involvement is believed to have been triggered by a meeting between FGV chief executive officer Datuk Zakaria Arshad and the anti-graft commission.
On Wednesday, Zakaria had spent four hours at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya to assist in the probe concerning irregularities over Delima Oil Products Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of FGV.
Earlier this week, Zakaria and several other senior FGV officers were instructed to go on forced leave following a boardroom tussle, allegedly triggered by a delayed payment to an Afghan company for Delima Oil products.
The government has since appointed Pemandu Associates chief executive Datuk Seri Idris Jala as a third party to obtain the facts of the case concerning the issue.
