RM38 Million, 200kg of Gold and 17 Luxury Vehicles- What Is the Official Status? On 13 April 2026, I publicly requested an official update concerning the major multi-agency operation conducted in July 2023 involving businessman Datuk Abdul Malik Dasthigeer, commonly known as "Datuk Malik." According to contemporaneous media reports, the operation involved raids at 34 locations & the reported seizure of approximately- – RM38 million in cash – 200kg of gold valued at approximately RM60 million at the time – 17 luxury vehicles The investigation was reportedly conducted under several laws, including the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing & Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act, the MACC Act, & relevant tax and customs legislation. Datuk Malik was questioned & subsequently released on bail. He publicly stated that he had cooperated fully & provided the information requested by MACC. Tan Sri Azam Baki, who was MACC Chief Commissioner at that time, was reported as saying that the investigation remained ongoing. More than three years later, I am respectfully seeking clarification concerning its present official status. This post does not allege that Datuk Malik committed any offence. An arrest, investigation or seizure does not establish criminal liability. Every person is entitled to the presumption of innocence unless proven guilty by a court. This post also does not connect the investigation to any other individual or any separate pending court case. The questions are directed solely to the relevant authorities- Has the 2023 investigation been completed? Is it still ongoing, closed without further action, referred for further consideration, or resolved through another lawful process? Were any court proceedings concerning the reported assets initiated? What is the present legal status of the RM38 million in cash, 200kg of gold and 17 luxury vehicles reportedly seized? Are those assets still being held, subject to court proceedings, lawfully released or otherwise dealt with under the applicable legislation? If the matter was referred to the Attorney General’s Chambers, has a decision been made, or is it still under consideration? I fully recognise that enforcement agencies cannot disclose evidence or information that could compromise an active investigation. Nevertheless, confirming the general procedural status of a publicly reported investigation should not require disclosure of confidential evidence. If the investigation has concluded without charges, an official clarification would protect the reputation of those investigated and prevent continuing public speculation. If proceedings concerning the assets remain active, the authorities can confirm that fact without commenting on their merits. If the assets were lawfully released, forfeited or otherwise dealt with, the public should be informed of the applicable legal outcome. The present MACC Chief Commissioner, Datuk Seri Abdul Halim Aman, did not initiate this investigation. However, the responsibility for providing an appropriate institutional update now rests with the current MACC administration. This is not an accusation. It is a request for transparency and procedural closure concerning an enforcement operation that was publicly reported on a significant scale. I therefore respectfully ask Prime Minister @anwaribrahim, @SPRMMalaysia and @AGCPutrajaya: What is the official status of the 2023 investigation, and what is the present legal status of the assets reportedly seized? The public deserves a clear and factual answer. @anwaribrahim @SPRMMalaysia @AGCPutrajaya
