KUALA LUMPUR — Ex-human resources minister Datuk Seri M. Saravanan arrived at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters on Tuesday afternoon along with family members to address asset declaration notices issued by the agency.
The former minister's visit followed the MACC's issuance of formal notices requiring him and his family to furnish details of their assets and financial holdings. The commission has intensified scrutiny of high-ranking government officials' declarations as part of its ongoing anti-corruption mandate.
Saravanan, who previously served in the human resources portfolio, has faced increased public attention in recent months regarding his personal financial disclosures. The MACC's move reflects the agency's commitment to ensuring compliance with asset declaration requirements among current and former government officials.
The visit represents part of the commission's broader efforts to maintain transparency and accountability within government circles. Officials at the MACC did not immediately provide statements regarding the outcome of Saravanan's appearance or the specific scope of the investigation.
