Rasuah: Pegawai dan anggota tentera direman 7 hari

Dua pegawai dan anggota tentera masing-masing berpangkat Leftenan Kolonel dan Staf Sarjan direman selama tujuh hari bermula hari ini bagi membantu siasatan melibatkan kes rasuah.

Perintah reman dikeluarkan oleh Majistret Nurunaim Abdullah di Mahkamah Majistret Kuantan pagi tadi.

Semalam, SPRM telah menangkap seorang pegawai tentera berpangkat Leftenan Kolonel yang bertugas di Unit Senggaraan Zon Timur, Bahagian Perkhidmatan Kejuruteraan Pertahanan (BPKP) kerana dipercayai telah menerima suapan daripada kontraktor-kontraktor proksi termasuk syarikat milik ayahnya yang mana isterinya merupakan pengarah syarikat tersebut.

Susulan itu, SPRM turut menahan seorang lagi anggota berpangkat Staf Sarjan yang bertugas di BPKP Zon Pahang.

Suspek berusia 44 tahun itu ditangkap kira-kira pukul 8.40 malam ketika hadir memberi keterangan di Ibu Pejabat SPRM Kuantan.

Kedua-dua suspek yang merupakan Penyelia Senggaraan Kawasan Temerloh, Pahang disiasat mengikut Seksyen 23 Akta SPRM 2009.

Timbalan Ketua Pesuruhjaya (Operasi) SPRM Dato Azam Baki ketika dihubungi mengesahkan maklumat tersebut.

Beliau berkata SPRM percaya mereka terlibat dalam meluluskan puluhan projek kepada syarikat berkepentingan sejak beberapa tahun lalu.

"SPRM akan menyiasat jika terdapat penglibatan pegawai-pegawai lain dalam perkara tersebut," ujar beliau.

Consider This: Transnational Repression (Part 2) — Are Our Governments Enabling It?

Authoritarian regimes don’t stop at their own borders—often reaching across countries to track, detain, and deport refugees, activists, and migrants. This is transnational repression: when a state extends its repression beyond its own beyond their borders to control or punish its citizens abroad. Malaysia and Thailand, two of Southeast Asia’s biggest hubs for migrants and refugees, have become key battlegrounds for transnational repression. With Malaysia helming ASEAN chair this year, what role does the region play in resisting, or enabling, transnational repression? On this episode of #ConsiderThis Melisa Idris speaks with Krittaporn Semsantad, Programme Director at the Bangkok-based Peace Rights Foundation.
