JOHOR BAHARU, March 21 (Bernama) -- Johor police detained a Johor Football Association (Johor FA) official two days ago in connection with the recent match-fixing scandal involving football bookies in the state.
Johor CID Chief Datuk Amer Awal said the official, a woman, would be remanded for five days to facilitate investigations.
"We received a tip off from another Johor FA official on Sunday that a woman official was connected to bookies and involved in match fixing.
"The official is said to be a friend of a police officer in Johor and investigations will be conducted under the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) act," he said in a statement here Wednesday.
