The remand order on two former Felda senior officers, including one with a 'Datuk' title, was extended for another three days beginning tomorrow to assist in the case of misappropriation over a sturgeon fish breeding project worth RM47.6 million.

Meanwhile, three other individuals were released on a Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) bond.

The remand order and release of the individuals aged 30, 33, 38, 53 and 57 was made by Magistrate Nik Isfahanie Tasnim Wan Ab Rahman at the Magistrate's Court in Putrajaya today.

They were detained at several locations around the Klang Valley between 11.30am and 1.30pm on Jan 24 through the MACC 'Op Caviar' to investigate the alleged misappropriation of the sturgeon fish breeding technology transfer worth US$10 million (RM47.6 million) since 2014.

Earlier, they were all remanded for seven days beginning last Wednesday and the case was investigated under Section 18 of the MACC Act 2009.
