MACC chief commissioner Azam Baki said the anti-graft agency will submit its investigation papers involving the two top officials to the Attorney-General’s Chambers on Friday.

He said their recommendation will be to charge the duo with corruption, Bernama reported.

The environment department director-general and his deputy were among four people remanded by MACC as part of investigations into allegations of abuse of power and corruption involving e-waste management.

Also arrested were six company owners suspected of involvement in e-waste smuggling over the past five years.

MACC also froze 16 bank accounts involving RM10.2 million while seven companies in Selangor had been identified as being involved in the e-waste smuggling.

The agency was also looking into several firms in Negeri Sembilan over similar activities.
