The order to remand the 46-year-old woman was issued by Magistrate's Court senior assistant registrar Yuhainis Mohd Roslan today.
A company manager and a supervisor, who are both 34, were also remanded for two days for further investigation into the same case under Section 18 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009.
Yesterday, Bernama reported that the MACC arrested four individuals believed to be involved in making false claims involving a supply contract worth RM1.3 million from 2022 to 2023 for 100 students of a primary school in Terengganu while the actual number of students was only 35.
