KLANG: The Selangor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has seized six houses valued at RM3.3mil belonging to a director of a Federal agency.
The 54-year-old director is currently under remand pending investigations into alleged abuse of power and graft.
According to an MACC source, the houses are located in Selangor, Putrajaya and Negri Sembilan.
Also seized were three plots of land in Kedah and one plot in Selangor.
The MACC valuation team is still determining the combined value of the land, said the source.
It is understood that the MACC has also frozen the director's and his children's bank and investment accounts totalling RM850,000.
Also seized were a Toyota Alphard, an Orient and a Chopard watch, a gold bangle, a gold chain and a gold ring.
Selangor MACC director Datuk Wan Ramli Wan Abdullah confirmed the seizure and said investigations were being carried out to determine if the director owned other assets obtained through corruption.
The director was detained at a hotel in Bagan Lalang, Sepang at about noon on Wednesday.
The suspect's wife, 36, an administrative assistant in the same agency, was also nabbed at her office by the MACC team.
Two company directors, said to have been awarded contracts by the director, were also taken in for questioning.
