MUAR (Oct 5): A former actor who was released after his two-day remand issued by the Ampang magistrate’s court expired was arrested and remanded again for two days by the Magistrate’s Court here to help investigations into a low-cost housing scam involving RM6.2 million, Bernama reported today.
The 37-year-old man, a ‘Datuk’ and managing director of a company, was brought to the Muar District Police headquarters yesterday, and the remand order was issued by court assistant registrar Nor'iza Mohamad today.
Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani yesterday said the police reports lodged against DBI Properties and Syarikat Juta Kelulut Global Resources in relation to the case had increased from 188 to 201, Bernama reported.
It was reported on Tuesday that police arrested two other suspects aged 29 and 45, and also seized a Nissan Fairlady, BMW E92, three mobile phones, a PhD Certificate and documents related to DBI Properties and Juta Kelulut.
Acryl Sani advised the public to always be wary and not to be duped into schemes and excessive offers by any individual or company.
He pointed out that offers of any scheme that differed from the normal ones should be studied in detail and, in fact, should be referred to more knowledgeable agencies to avoid from becoming victims of such fraudulent acts.
