Six Puspakom staff who are suspected to be involved in a syndicate to approve inspection of heavy vehicles have been suspended. CEO Mahmood Razak Bahman said the company takes the case seriously and will not compromise on any wrongdoing, especially those involving the integrity of vehicle inspection operations.
“As I have stressed repeatedly, Puspakom will never compromise on corruption. If there’s any evidence on the offence, we will not hesitate to take strong action towards any staff involved. It includes those who work with syndicates to approve vehicle inspections illegally,” he said, reported by Bernama.
Mahmood also said that Puspakom is conducting internal investigations and guarantees that anyone who is involved in the crime will be handed over to the authorities for appropriate action. “We will not protect anyone who’s involved in corruption,” he stressed.
This week, MACC chief Tan Sri Azam Baki confirmed that the anti-corruption agency detained eight individuals including six Puspakom inspectors allegedly involved in a syndicate to approve vehicle inspection. The Puspakom employees have been released on MACC bail after their statements were taken. The other two, who are runners appointed by the Puspakom staff, have been remanded for five days until Saturday.
Separately, JPJ and the ministry of domestic trade and cost of living (KPDN) will be meeting next week to discuss the activities of ‘cosmetic agents’ at Puspakom vehicle inspection centres. These agents have been said to offer rental tyres to owners of commercial vehicles just so that the vehicles can pass Puspakom inspections.
The spotlight is once again on the roadworthiness of lorries after a multiple-vehicle incident on the PLUS in Melaka claimed seven lives last month. The accident started from a tyre that had detached from a lorry trailer.
