Malaysian authorities will charge three people with corruption crimes on Monday morning. The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission arrested two state lawmakers and one business owner during Operation Adun. Officials plan to bring them before the Special Corruption Court at 9 a.m. The court hearing will take place at the courthouse. Media outlets received official notice about the upcoming charges.

The three suspects face four separate criminal counts under Malaysia's anti-corruption law from 2009. Prosecutors will file two charges for offering money to government officials. They will also file two charges for taking money from people seeking favors. The crimes involve helping people obtain permits to search for minerals and precious metals. Court documents show the suspects violated specific sections of the corruption prevention act.

This case connects to a larger investigation that has implicated 15 political figures. The corrupt activities happened between 2023 and 2024 according to commission records. Politicians received payments to help process mining license applications for private companies. The anti-corruption commission chief told reporters his agency was working to arrest suspects and schedule their court appearances. Officials continue investigating other people who may have participated.
