CLOSE TO 100 BANK ACCOUNTS FROZEN

Additionally, Mr Razarudin – the police chief – said that a total of 96 bank accounts linked to GISB worth over RM580,000 (US$135,000) have been frozen by the authorities.

Along with this, the authorities have also ordered for eight vehicles to be confiscated.

CNA had previously reported that GISB was established in 2010 and has assets totalling around RM325 million globally

The police chief on Tuesday added that the authorities may also call up GISB executive chairman and chief executive officer Nasiruddin Mohd Ali in due time, though he did not disclose a timeline for this.

Over the weekend, Mr Nasiruddin acknowledged in a video posted on the conglomerate’s Facebook page that there were “one or two” cases of sodomy at the care homes but denied other allegations of misconduct.

“Indeed, there were one or two cases of sodomy, but why lump them (the cases) all together?” he said.

Mr Nasirudin added: “I don’t want to blame the laws. It’s true we have done some wrongs in the eyes of the law but couldn’t there be some advice or discussions first?”

When asked about the remarks, Mr Razarudin told the media that there was no need for the police to reach out to GISB prior to conducting their investigations.

“Let me ask you, do we hold a discussion prior to initiating an investigation?

“Although he mentioned that he has previously held discussions, but it was not with me, or (Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department Director Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain), and I don’t know what was discussed,” Mr Razarudin said, according to the Malay Mail.
