This is the result of an eight-month internal audit that raised questions about the engagement of private skills training providers to conduct questionable training programmes with certifications from dubious organisations. Last week, it was reported that MACC had seized documents from HRDF in relation to investigations into the probe on fraudulent training claims.Police are also understood to be investigating claims of criminal breach of trust and misappropriation of funds.
Meanwhile, prominent skills training provider Emmanuel Benson is facing CBT charges of his own in the Kajang Sessions Court. He was charged on March 10 and is set to go to trial on May 10 on one count of CBT under Section 409 of the Penal Code.
