PUTRAJAYA: After five hours, three celebrities, including renowned singer Ziana Zain, completed their statements to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to assist in the Ops Sky investigation.
According to Sinar Harian, the vehicle carrying the "Madah Berhelah" singer left the MACC headquarters at 3pm.
The other two celebrities, Datuk Jalaluddin Hassan and Datuk Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor Al Masrie Sheikh Mustapha, departed separately in their respective vehicles.
They arrived at 9.30am after being summoned by MACC to aid in investigations related to corruption and money laundering involving a financial consultancy firm.
According to sources, the statement recording process began at 10am and concluded at 2.45pm.
In January, MACC successfully dismantled a corruption and money laundering operation involving a financial consultancy firm and bank officers across several financial institutions in Ops Sky.
This was the result of the arrest of 12 individuals in raids by MACC’s Anti-Money Laundering Division (AMLA), in collaboration with Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), at 24 locations, including residences and offices around the Klang Valley.
A total of RM700mil in loans was approved for civil servants, with the modus operandi believed to involve elements of corruption and money laundering.
