NFC Datuk Rearrested

The Datuk who was arrested by police after he allegedly tried to bribe several investigating officers with RM1.7mil over the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC) issue has been rearrested.

The 45-year-old businessman, who has been detained since Wednesday, was released after his second remand order ended.

He was immediately rearrested by police over a different case at around 11.30am yesterday at Bukit Jalil police station.

No details were given.

The Datuk, who is said to have duped numerous people, has been linked to a few cheating cases in Cheras and Ipoh.

Despite rumours that the Datuk is a relative of NFC executive chairman Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Salleh Ismail, a statement from Dr Mohamad Salleh on Sunday claimed that the businessman was neither related to him nor was he ever an employee of the corporation.

On Friday, Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission officers went to the NFC main office in Jalan Solaris in Mont Kiara and took away documents and a CPU.

The Auditor-General’s Report released in October had stated that NFC had failed to meet its cattle production target.

MACC was said to be investigating whether Women, Family and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Shahrizat Abdul Jalil, who is the wife of Dr Mohamad Salleh, had any part in the awarding of a RM250mil loan to NFC.
