The police have recovered a sum of
money, believed to be part of the loot of a robbery allegedly committed by three
Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officers at the KL International
Airport (KLIA) on Sept 15.Inspector-general of police Ismail Omar has however, declined to
disclose the amount of money recovered.“Investigations are proceeding smoothly and there are still some
issues which need to be resolved, including tracking down two men who are
believed to be linked to the case,” he said after attending a Hari Raya
gathering at the Kuala Lumpur police headquarters in Kuala Lumpur today.
On the three MACC officers whose remand ended yesterday, Ismail said it was extended by another three days, beginning today.The trio, attached to the Putrajaya MACC headquarters, were detained by police on suspicion of robbing a money-changer of foreign currencies amounting to about RM900,000.
They comprised an acting assistant commissioner, a senior assistant superintendent and an assistant superintendent.The MACC, in a statement recently, said the three officers had been suspended from investigation work while awaiting the outcome of police investigations.Meanwhile, to a question on two brothers linked to a bomb explosion in Sungai Golok and said to be in Malaysia, Ismail said the police were in the midst of tracking down the duo, aged 26 and 27.
“We have ongoing cooperation with the Thai police and take care of each other's interests in resolving this matter.“We have an understanding with the Thai security forces to ensure the security of the border between the two countries,” he added.In the bomb explosion on Sept 16, four Malaysians were killed and 19 others injured.
