KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian Indian United Party (MIUP) president Datuk S. Nallakaruppan gave his statement to the Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) yesterday to assist its investigation into his allegation that Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim received RM60 million from Magnum Corp when he was the finance minister.

ACA Director of Investigations Datuk Shukri Abdul, when contacted yesterday, confirmed that Nallakaruppan, the former right-hand man of the Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) adviser, was called up to give a statement on his allegation.

"The ACA began recording Nallakaruppan's statement since 3pm today (yesterday).

However, our officers did not record his statement at the ACA headquarters in Putrajaya.

"The location cannot be disclosed to the media but I can confirm that the ACA is now recording his statement," Shukri said, before declining to comment further.

Nallakaruppan, 61, in his ceramah in Permatang Pauh on Aug 23, had claimed that he had handed RM60 million from a gaming company to Anwar in 1998 for an undisclosed purpose.

He claimed that he had handed over the money personally to Anwar and that the PKR adviser had approved many gambling licences and four-digit lottery shops when he was the finance minister and deputy prime minister. -- Bernama
