PETALING JAYA: A total of 111 investigation papers have been opened in relation to the Global Ikhwan Services and Business Holdings case since September 2024, says home minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail.
In a written parliamentary reply today, he said 21 of them are still being actively investigated and have been referred to the Attorney-General’s Chambers for further instructions.
“Action is being taken for one of them under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
“A total of 44 people have been charged in court with various offences, including 22 under Section 130V(1) of the Penal Code (for membership in an organised crime group),” he said.
Saifuddin was responding to Rosol Wahid (PN-Hulu Terengganu), who had asked for updates on the investigation into GISBH members and the company’s current status.
The minister said 262 business premises belonging to GISBH in the country had been closed for various reasons.
“The police have also found that the majority of the company’s premises overseas have been closed and taken over by other parties,” he said.
In May, the Federal Court rejected a habeas corpus application by GISBH CEO Nasiruddin Ali and his wife Azura Yusof.
They had sought to challenge their detention under the Security Offences (Special Measures) Act 2012 after being charged with being members of an organised crime group.
Nasiruddin remains in detention at Sungai Buloh prison, while Azura was previously released on bail by the Shah Alam High Court.
