SEBERANG Jaya assemblyman Afif Bahardin is at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission headquarters in Putrajaya, believed to be in relation to graft-busters’ probe into the Penang undersea tunnel project.

Afif, who spoke to the press before entering the building about 2pm, said he was called up for questioning in his capacity as a state exco from 2013 to March this year.

He said he received the MACC notice on Monday, and that it is the first time he has been called up with regard to the case.

“I do not know what questions will be asked,” he said, adding that MACC has not requested any documents from him.

Afif resigned as Penang’s health exco on March 4.

It was reported that Chief Minister Chow Kon Yeow and several excos have given their statements to MACC over the RM6.3 billion project. – Bernama, July 15, 2020.
