KUALA LUMPUR: The four individuals arrested yesterday for an investigation into a money laundering case involving investment company i-Serve and low-cost airline MYAirline have been remanded for one to four days.
Bukit Aman Commercial Crime Investigation Department (CCID) director Datuk Seri Ramli Mohamed Yoosuf (pix) said they comprised two men and two women, all locals aged between 30 and 62.
“One of the women has been remanded for four days, while another woman is being held for three days. The third and fourth male suspects have been remanded for three days and one day respectively,” he said when contacted here today.
