Claims of funds missing from a Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) depositor’s account are untrue, as investigations revealed that the money was actually deposited into the former civil servant’s own bank account. NSTP FILE PICKUALA LUMPUR: Claims of funds missing from a Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) depositor's account are untrue, as investigations revealed that the money was actually deposited into the former civil servant's own bank account.
TH's corporate communications division clarified that the funds withdrawn from the depositor's Tabung Haji account were actually transferred to her own bank account.
"Referring to the allegations of unauthorised transactions reported in Sarawak by the media today, TH's investigation found that the fund transfer transactions were from the complainant'sTabung Haji account to her own bank account," it said.
Earlier today, Datuk Jabidah Monseri, 66, claimed that she had lost more than RM30,000 after funds in her Tabung Haji account were suspected to have been transferred to other accounts and withdrawn through automated teller machines (ATMs) since 2018.
She only realised the loss of the money on Nov 30 last year.
Jabidah said that after retiring as the deputy director-general of the National Anti-Drug Agency (Nada) in 2017, she was offered the position as chairman of Unimas Holdings, a subsidiary of Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (Unimas).
She said she was busy with her duties and didn't update herTabung Haji account. Then in 2019, she was appointed as a member of the Sarawak Civil Service Commission, and became even busier and neglected checking her TH account.
In November last year, she found her Tabung Haji book and went to a Tabung Haji office in Kuching to update her account book.
It was then that she discovered that her balance was at RM1,816.74, whereas it should have been over RM31,000.
Jabidah said further checks revealed a detailed account statement showing that her savings were withdrawn through 30 transactions starting from Feb 26, 2018.
"Seven transactions were made through transfers from Tabung Haji to several bank accounts, while 23 were withdrawals made using ATMs. The first transfer to a bank account on Feb 26, 2018, amounted to RM10,000, and on the same date, a withdrawal of RM1,000 was made using an ATM card," she said. - NST
