Shafie could be next on MACC list


KOTA KINABALU: Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal’s younger bro­ther Hamid has been remanded for five days over the alleged skimming of RM1.5bil from rural development projects – and the former Rural and Regional Development minister could well be next on the list.

Shafie seems likely to be pulled in by graft investigators in their probe and although the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has not given any indication, sources say the Parti Warisan Sabah president has many questions to answer over the deals.
