PUTRAJAYA: Only 10 per cent of 80 individuals and entities slapped with compound notices over their alleged use of funds siphoned from 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) have agreed to pay their fines. Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) deputy chief commissioner (operations) Datuk Seri Azam Baki said the parties have agreed to make payment in instalments after they were issued the notices on Oct 7. “They received (1MDB funds) and have agreed to pay up. “There are also three individuals who refused to accept the compound notices – but we are still serving them,” he added. The MACC last week had issued compound notices to 80 individuals and entities which received funds totalling RM420 million from 1MDB.
