Updates on investigations involving Ismail Sabri, DBKL, and MEX II will be revealed on Tuesday, according to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.

The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is set to disclose updates on several high-profile cases, including the investigation into the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) and the Op Sikaro case, on Tuesday.

The DBKL case has been under suspicion of corruption since 2014. Last month, three individuals, including a senior officer at Jusa B grade, a company owner, and a member of the public, were detained in connection with the case. The investigation into the DBKL-related issue has been completed, and the case has been referred to the Public Prosecutor for review and recommendation for prosecution in court. The MACC hopes charges can be filed against those involved at the latest after Malaysia Day or in the first week of October.

Former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob has appeared several times at MACC headquarters to assist in investigations into corruption and money laundering cases involving the expenditure and procurement of funds for the 'Keluarga Malaysia' program. Many cases have resulted in punitive actions such as court prosecutions, fines, and internal disciplinary measures by the relevant departments.

For the Op Sikaro investigation, investigations are still ongoing, and a large amount of money obtained through illegal activities has been traced. MACC officers are still conducting analysis on the Op Sikaro case as it involves hundreds of accounts.

In addition to the DBKL and Op Sikaro cases, MACC will also provide details on cases related to the oil and gas solutions provider Sapura Energy Berhad, and several other cases under investigation since last year. The cases include investigations involving senior officers of DBKL and the Maju Expressway Extension Project (MEX II).

The MACC is working to complete all high-profile investigations promptly to avoid negative public perceptions of delay. Most investigations have been expedited, including in terms of preparing investigation papers. The commission aims to ensure transparency and accountability in its investigations and prosecutions.
