Sabah duo on the run

Sabah duo on the run The Star 2 Feb 2012bKUALA LUMPUR: A 41-year-old Sabah politician, who is a Datuk and an Umno division assistant chief, has fled the state after learning that his office was raided over false claims involving a RM43mil contract for mechanical and electrical maintenance work with Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS).

A department director at the university is also being investigated and his office was raided as well by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officers.

He is also said to have fled the state.

Sources said the two men had allegedly made false claims amounting to millions of ringgit although no work was done since the contract was awarded 36 months ago.

MACC investigations revealed that false claims were also uncovered involving the UMS campus in Labuan.

They said the commission had recorded statements from several witnesses in the case, including the university staff.

“There are more witnesses whose statements will be recorded.

“The Datuk is said to have been interfering in the management of the university and allegedly benefited from it,” added the sources.

They said the MACC hoped to arrest the two men soon.

They also said the authorities knew the men's whereabouts and wanted them to give themselves up or face arrest.
