He added that investigations were being done to determine the modus operandi used by the suspects to collect illegal deposits through a business network since three years ago.
“The investigations also involve determining the type of crime involved, including how the suspects procured the deposits,” he was quoted as saying.
Ramli also said the police were attempting to freeze over 15 bank accounts linked to Goh, and that his remand order had been extended for another two days.
On Wednesday, the police confirmed the arrest of MYAirline’s co-founder and majority shareholder Goh Hwan Hua, along with two of his family members at their residence in Shah Alam, Selangor.
The trio had been remanded for four days to facilitate investigations under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
