KUALA LUMPUR – The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has frozen four company accounts and four personal bank accounts, with a combined value of approximately RM4 million, as part of an ongoing investigation into land misappropriation in Selangor.

Sources revealed that the Selangor MACC, which began its probe on Monday (March 9), has also frozen two unit trust accounts worth around RM2.6 million, alongside several other company and individual savings accounts totalling roughly RM1 million, Bernama reported.

"At the same time, the MACC investigation is now focusing on allegations of abuse of power and fraud,” the sources added.
