Penjana Kerjaya scam: ex-IT manager slapped with RM13,000 fine for false claims

Accused pleads guilty for submitting false documents to Socso to claim RM9,500 in incentives three years ago

4:21 PM MYT

 

KUALA LUMPUR – A former information technology (IT) training company manager was fined RM13,000 by the sessions court here today for submitting false documents to Social Security Organisation (Socso) to claim incentives under the Penjana Kerjaya 2.0 programme amounting to RM9,500 three years ago.

Judge Suzana Hussin imposed the sentence on S. Kamala Segaran, 48, after he pleaded guilty to the three charges and ordered him to serve three months in prison if he fails to pay the fine.

According to all charges, Kamala is accused of using three false documents, which are employee verification forms for the hiring incentive programme in the name of Tech Train Consultancy, to claim RM9,500 in Penjana Kerjaya 2.0 incentives, despite the fact that the employees named in the documents are not company employees.

All the offences were committed at Wisma Perkeso, Jalan Tun Razak, in Kg Baru here between June 25 and December 21, 2021.

The charge is under Section 471 of the Penal Code and is punishable under Section 465 of the same code, which provides for a maximum prison sentence of two years, a fine or both.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission prosecuting officer Mohd Yasri Yahya asked for the appropriate punishment to teach the accused a lesson.


Lawyer R. Babu Naidu, who represented the accused, asked for a minimum fine on the grounds that his client is a single father supporting a 6-year-old child and his parents. – January 11, 2024
