PETALING JAYA: The four children of the late Daim Zainuddin are expected to have their statements recorded by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) on April 6 at its headquarters.
According to a Berita Harian report, MACC special operations division senior director Zamri Zainul Abidin said their lawyer had assured the agency that all four would be present.
“MACC is giving all parties the opportunity to appear, and if any individual fails to do so, further action will be considered in accordance with existing laws,” he said.
The anti-graft agency previously issued a public search notice to trace Daim’s four children: his daughter Asnida and his three sons – Wira Dani, Amir and Amin.
MACC listed their last known residences in a statement but did not disclose further details on the investigations.
Daim died at Assunta Hospital in Petaling Jaya on Nov 13, 2024, at the age of 86.
In 2024, MACC seized multiple bank accounts belonging to Daim’s widow, Naimah Khalid, and their four children. Eighteen companies linked to them, including Ilham Tower Sdn Bhd and Selidik Jaya Sdn Bhd, were also seized.
Naimah is standing trial on a charge of failing to comply with the terms of an asset declaration notice issued by MACC.
Daim had been accused of committing the same offence, but the charge was dropped following his death.
