The former prime minister is expected to be summoned tomorrow for a fifth day of questioning. 

Former prime minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob leaving the MACC headquarters in his vehicle at 4.30pm.

PUTRAJAYA: Former prime minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob spent close to seven hours being quizzed by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) today in an investigation involving four of his former senior officers.

The Bera MP arrived at the MACC headquarters here at 9.52am today and left at 4.30pm without lowering his window to address reporters.

A MACC source said the graft busters have yet to wrap up their probe and still required the ninth prime minister to assist in the investigation.

Ismail is expected to return to the MACC headquarters at 10am tomorrow for a fifth day of questioning.

The former Umno vice-president is being questioned as a suspect in a corruption and money laundering investigation into four of his former officers.

MACC previously said that about RM170 million in cash and 16kg of gold bars worth millions of ringgit had been seized in raids at the residences of the four officers, and three other premises believed to be “safe houses”.

Ismail, who collapsed at home on Feb 22 and was hospitalised for blood pressure-related problems, could not attend two previously scheduled sessions with MACC on March 5 and 7 after being issued medical certificates by his doctor.

He declared his assets to the anti-graft agency on Feb 10.
