SAMM gives MACC documents on S'gor sand mining scam

Solidariti Anak Muda Malaysia (SAMM) founder Badrul Hisham Shaharin today handed over almost 300 pages of documents to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission on what he claimed were syndicates fraudulently securing tenders for sand mining in Selangor.

Badrul Hisham, better known as Chegubard, said the documents comprised agreements, offer letters, related photographs, bank transactions, copies of police reports and statements of oath that exposed such activity.

In a report to the MACC, he named four individuals who were believed to have falsified letters from the state government, various agencies and authorities pertaining to approval of the sand mining tenders.

“Based on the volume of documents gathered, we suspect the syndicates deceived the people and raked in more than RM500,000 in commissions from the activity,” he said when approached before lodging the report at the MACC headquarters in Putrajaya.

Badrul Hisham said he hoped that the MACC would conduct an investigation and take action soon on the corruption, breach of trust, and abuse of power and position that he claimed had taken place.

He said that based on the records obtained, three companies were believed to be involved in the activity.

In March last year, Badrul Hisham revealed that a company lost hundreds of thousands of ringgit after it was promised the right to mine sand but it turned out to be a scam.
