MALACCA: The Chief Minister is enraged with a group of volunteers in the state who allegedly sold donated food and clothing meant for flood victims in east coast states.

Datuk Seri Idris Haron said he had learnt that some members of the 1,000-strong voluntary group that had been engaged by Malacca to help in flood relief work since Dec 23 had profited from the donated goods by selling them to desperate victims of the disaster at inflated prices.
