PUTRAJAYA: A man who allegedly offered the Sultan of Johor a RM2mil bribe has surrendered himself to the authorities.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission deputy chief commissioner Datuk Azam Baki (pix) said the 54-year-old man surrendered to the MACC on Thursday afternoon.

“Investigations are still ongoing. Whether or not he will be remanded or released, we will decide on Friday morning,” said Azam.

Earlier, the MACC said it had given the individual until midnight to come forward, failing which, his identity would be revealed.

Last Saturday, Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar wrote on his official Facebook page that he was offered RM2mil to suggest the person’s name to the Chief Secretary for a “Tan Sri” title.

He said he was ready to reveal information to the MACC on those trying to buy him over and wanted the matter to be investigated.

On Monday, the Johor Ruler granted an audience to MACC chief Datuk Dzulkifli Ahmad following his allegations.-thestar
