Cash official to be charged?

Troubled Consumer Association of Sabah and Labuan (Cash) may see a senior member being charged in court next week.

It was reliably learnt that the case had to do with the raid conducted by the Registrar of Societies (ROS) at Cash's office in Kepayan on Feb 10.

Indications of forgery and falsification were allegedly found in the premises, prompting the ROS to cart away files and documents before lodging a report at the Karamunsing police station.

It was also learnt that prior to the raid, a team from the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry went to Cash's office to conduct an audit.

Investigations into the police reports first lodged by Cash Deputy President Nordin Thani and Secretary-General Hashima Hasbullah on Feb 2 and subsequently by the ROS on Feb 10, appeared to have been completed.

Reliable sources say the files are now with the Senior Federal Counsel (SFC)'s office.
