KUALA LUMPUR: The Malay reserve land fraud case in Perak was an isolated incident, says Tan Sri Azam Baki.
“It is a criminal offence to change the status of a Malay reserve land to freehold. And we will investigate if there are reports of such activities in other states,” he said on the sidelines after the pre-launch ceremony of the publishing project and integrity values implementation programme joint venture between MACC and the Malaysia Institute of Translation and Books here, on Wednesday .
It was revealed that the suspect bribed a civil servant working in the land office to change the status of 649.2ha of Malay reserve land, which resulted in the illegal transfer of the land to non-Malay companies and individuals. At the pre-launch of the"Wira Anti Rasuah" comic book, Azam said the publication was a strategic collaboration initiative between MACC and ITBM to raise awareness on anti-graft among school-going children.
