Guan Eng to await Mansor’s report on aide’s arrest

(The Star) – Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng said the state government will cooperate fully with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in a graft case involving an aide to Deputy Chief Minister I Datuk Mansor Othman.

“We will wait for Mansor to return from overseas and submit his report on the matter by Thursday,” he said here Monday.

Lim said the state would take action if the aide was a contract officer with the state government.

Mansor, who is the Penang PKR liaison chairman, is away in Mecca.

It was reported earlier that the 56-year-old aide was arrested with two others in a MACC sting operation in Seberang Jaya.

The three were arrested for allegedly offering a bribe and abusing their positions when handling a sexual harassment case.
