Fireman claims trial to soliciting, accepting RM3,000 in bribes


A FIREMAN pleaded not guilty at the Shah Alam Sessions Court today on two counts of soliciting and accepting bribes amounting to RM3,000 last year.

Mohd Nor Abdullah, 38, as assistant fire superintendent at the zone 3 Port Klang fire and rescue station, was alleged to have solicited and accepted the bribe as an inducement for him to recommend a company to be given a business licence by the Klang Municipal Council.

The offences were allegedly committed at the fire and rescue station on November 30 and December 1, 2021.

The charge was framed under sections 16(a)(B) and 17(a) of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Act 2009, and punishable under section 24(1) of the same act.

If convicted, he faces a maximum jail term of 20 years and a fine of not less than five times the value of the bribe or RM10,000, whichever is higher.

Judge Rasyihah Ghazali allowed him bail of RM8,000 with one surety and fixed November 29 for mention.

The court also ordered Nor to report himself to the Selangor MACC office every month and not be allowed to apply for or renew his passport.

Selangor MACC prosecuting officer Mohd Aliff Shaharuzaman prosecuted while lawyer P.G. Cyril represented the accused. – Bernama, October 27, 2022.

  • I'm super excited guys, my name is Sonia from Los Angeles, California, I tried getting a car loan sometime last year but my credit score of about 521 ruined the process. Since I was in desperate need of a car due to the nature of my new job, I resorted to making online research on how I could restore my credit to a minimum of 650 to enable me to qualify, after a few months of searching, I bumped into a blog and found positive reviews about HACK VANISH CREDIT SPECIALIST, So I reached out to them to explain my credit situation, they requested my info and necessary details and were able to get every derogatory item on my report erased and increased my FICO score to 788 within 6 days, I was amazed. They are fast and reliable. Anyone looking for a credit solution below is their contact details:
