Civil rights group urges investigation into former attorney-general over Tabung Haji RCI

G57, a coalition of civil rights groups, has demanded an investigation into the former attorney-general's conduct regarding her purported role in the Tabung Haji Royal Commission of Inquiry proceedings. The group's chairman, Zulkarnain Mahdar, said any such probe must thoroughly examine claims made by Madinah Mohamad concerning her participation in the RCI process. The call reflects growing scrutiny over governance issues surrounding the high-profile inquiry into Malaysia's Islamic pilgrimage fund. Tabung Haji, which manages savings for Malaysian Muslims performing the hajj, faced significant reputational damage following revelations of financial mismanagement and governance failures in recent years. The RCI was established to investigate the fund's operations and identify those responsible for alleged irregularities. Civil society groups have increasingly sought accountability mechanisms to ensure transparency in how public institutions and their oversight bodies operate, particularly when senior government officials are involved.
