Tabung Haji has refuted claims that funds amounting to RM30,000 went missing from a retired senior government official's account
According to Tabung Haji's corporate communications division, their investigations revealed that the money was transferred into the former civil servant's own bank account, reported the New Straits Times.
"Referring to the allegations of unauthorised transactions reported in Sarawak by the media, Tabung Haji's investigation found that the fund transfer transactions were from the complainant's Tabung Haji account to her own bank account," the Malaysian hajj pilgrims fund board stated last night, 7 March.
Tabung Haji's response comes after the victim, Datuk Jabidah Monseri, 66, claimed that she did not receive any updates from Tabung Haji despite having filed a police report in December last year
Jabidah claimed that she lost RM30,000 after funds in her Tabung Haji account were allegedly transferred to other accounts and withdrawn through ATMs since 2018, without her knowledge.
In her police report, she demanded that Tabung Haji take action regarding the loss of her funds.
