‘Tan Sri’ arrested in RM10 mil scam case not Steven Sim’s advisor: minister’s press secretary

Clarification issued to deny news report that the individual serves as advisor to the Human Resources Minister

PUTRAJAYA — The “Tan Sri” arrested on March 29 for allegedly scamming the public of RM10 million is not an advisor to Human Resources Minister Steven Sim, the minister’s press secretary said.

Abdul Hakim Ab Rahman said Sim had never appointed any individual as his advisor, in response to claims about an individual who is allegedly serving as an advisor.

“Any inquiries regarding positions within the Minister’s Office or the Human Resources Ministry should be directed to the ministry’s official channels,” Bernama reported Abdul Hakim saying in a statement, today.

The clarification follows a report by a news portal alleging that a businessman with the title Tan Sri – who is believed to have defrauded the public of RM10 million – was an advisor to the Human Resources Minister.

On March 29, police arrested the Tan Sri businessman with 30 years of experience in the oil and gas industry at his residence in Jalan U-Thant in the capital.

The 59-year-old man is believed to have collected about RM10 million from various individuals by claiming he had close ties with the police and could hep resolve their money-laundering cases.

“He further asserted that the money collected would be handed over to the police to prevent the victims from facing any legal action or investigations under Amla,” Bernama reported, citing a police source on the arrest.

The Tan Sri was arrested by Bukit Aman’s Anti-Money Laundering Act (Amla) Criminal Investigation Team.

Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain reportedly said police would hold a  press conference on the case soon. – March 31, 2025
