KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 11 — His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia, has ordered a comprehensive and transparent investigation into the findings of the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report on Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH).

The Star reported that Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs) Zulkifli Hasan said the King had instructed that the investigation be conducted without compromise, with no stone left unturned.

“His Majesty’s concern underscores the importance of safeguarding the trust and confidence of Muslims in the country’s Haj management and Islamic financial institutions, which is in line with the Madani government’s commitment,” he said during the tabling of the report in the Dewan Rakyat today.

Zulkifli said the Cabinet had unanimously reviewed the RCI report on July 29 and decided to make it public by tabling and debating it during the special parliamentary sitting.

“The Cabinet has also agreed for a full investigation to be conducted immediately by the enforcement authorities based on the RCI findings.

“Following the decision, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) and police acted swiftly by launching follow-up investigations and arresting several key individuals linked to alleged misconduct highlighted in the RCI report,” he said.

Zulkifli said the actions demonstrated the government’s and enforcement authorities’ continued commitment to ensuring there would be no compromise against any party involved in abuse of power or criminal breach of trust involving assets and funds belonging to the country’s Haj pilgrims.
