The statement also reveals the donor was from the Middle East, but did not provide the donor’s identity.
In the same statement, MACC also explains why their August 3 statement on the source of the RM2.6 billion funds were not made through the special task force. The commission says they had been advised by the A-G that there was no longer any need for the multi-agency task force to probe 1MDB. Instead, the four agencies of the task force will run investigations separately and report back to the A-G.
The statement also says MACC is involved in investigating the issue revolving SRC International while the police is fully in charge of investigating 1MDB.
The controversial RM4 billion funds related to SRC International is also being investigated by the MACC and it is conducted separately from the RM2.6 billion fund probe.
Meanwhile, two MACC officers who had been called by the police before, were arrested after giving evidence at the Putrajaya district police headquarters.
Both were then taken to the MACC headquarters for investigation by the police.
