Four remanded in MYAirline, i-Serve probe

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 27 — The four individuals arrested yesterday for an investigation into a money laundering case involving investment company i-Serve and low-cost airline MYAirline have been remanded for one to four days.

Bukit Aman Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) director Datuk Seri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf said they comprised two men and two women, all locals aged between 30 and 62.

“One of the women has been remanded for four days, while another is being held for three days. The third and fourth male suspects have been remanded for three days and one day, respectively,” he said when contacted today.

The remand for another suspect, a businessman in his 40s held since October 23, has been extended for another four days until October 30.

The suspects’ professions include a treasury assistant, a finance assistant, a research and development (R&D) manager, a company lawyer, and a shareholder.

On October 17, police arrested the co-founder of the local airline, who has a Datuk title, along with his wife and son at their Shah Alam residence to facilitate investigations under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 (AMLA).

Following that, another businessman was arrested. However, all have been released on police bail.
