The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has postponed its questioning of former Federal Land Development Authority (Felda) chairman Isa Samad to allow him to recover from eye surgery.
MACC chief commissioner Abd Halim Aman said the agency would resume its investigation and take the former politician's statement once his medical condition had improved sufficiently.
Isa Samad, a prominent political figure, has been under investigation by the anti-graft agency. The decision to defer questioning reflects the MACC's accommodation of the subject's current health situation.
The agency did not provide a specific timeline for when the questioning would resume, indicating it would be contingent on Isa Samad's recovery progress.
This development comes as the MACC continues its various investigations into allegations of corruption and misconduct involving high-profile figures in Malaysia.
