RM114mil seized from Sabah Water Department director and deputy

KOTA KINABALU: It came as a shock to even the most seasoned graft-busters.

In the biggest ever seizure in its 49-year history, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Agency (MACC, formerly the Anti-Corruption Agency) recovered RM114mil from the top two officials of the Sabah Water Department – including RM53.7mil in cold hard cash that took more than 30 officers 15 hours to count.
