Halal licence can give you haram money

The accused was charged at the Shah Alam court complex with one count under the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009, and faces an alternative charge under the Penal Code.

An officer with the Selangor Islamic religious department (Jais) has pleaded not guilty to graft-related charges at the sessions court in Shah Alam, the capital city of the state, FMT reported yesterday.

Encik Amir Zubir was charged under Section 17(a) of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009 with receiving RM8,000 from a company owner as an inducement to help reduce a compound issued in connection with a halal licence.

According to the prosecution, the sum was deposited into Amir’s bank account on 18 January 2023.

If convicted, Amir faces up to 20 years in prison and a fine of no less than RM10,000.

He faces an alternative charge under Section 165 of the Penal Code with receiving a valuable item worth RM8,000 from the same individual without adequate consideration.

The offence carries a maximum sentence of two years’ imprisonment or a fine, upon conviction.

Judge Encik Nasir Nordin granted bail at RM8,000 with one surety and ordered Amir to surrender his passport pending the disposal of the case.

The accused was also instructed to report to any MACC office once a month.

The court set 24 September for case management.
