The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has frozen multiple bank accounts, both personal and business, tied to the husband-and-wife founders of the e-commerce platform FashionValet, amounting to about RM1.1 million.

Sinar Harian reported that, according to a source, the freezing of the accounts is linked to an investigation into RM43.9 million in investment losses involving funds from Khazanah Nasional Bhd (Khazanah) and Permodalan Nasional Bhd (PNB).

It was also reported that MACC chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki confirmed that the bank accounts had indeed been frozen, stating that the investigation falls under Section 18 of the MACC Act 2009.

The source added that since the investigation kicked off, MACC has frozen 11 personal and 6 company accounts tied to the couple, adding up to roughly RM1.1 million, as part of “Op Favish”.

MACC has also gathered statements from key people, including top officials from Khazanah, PNB, and FashionValet, as well as accountants, a valuation firm, and the introducer.
