KUALA TERENGGANU: A former assistant engineer with the Terengganu Islamic Religious and Malay Customs Council (Maidam), Syed Ahmad Izzuddin Syed Abdullah, was sentenced to a month\u2019s jail and RM32,000 fine by the Sessions Court here today for submitting a false claim.<\/p>\n
Judge Mohamad Haldar Abd Aziz handed down the sentence on Syed Ahmad Izzudin, 35, after he pleaded guilty to the charge.<\/p>\n
Syed Ahmad Izzudin was charged with submitting a false claim for the supply and installation of carpet at Surau Al-Hijrah, worth RM6,400, which was found not carried out according to specification.<\/p>\n
The offence was committed at the Maidam office on Dec 29, 2015.<\/p>\n
He was charged under Section 16 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act, which provides an imprisonment for up to 20 years and a fine of not less than five times the amount of the false claim or RM10,000, whichever is higher, upon conviction.<\/p>\n

He failed to pay the fine and was taken to Marang Prison.<\/p>\n
