Pakar Media hit the headlines last year amid accusations that it had sponsored expensive dental treatments for the director-general of its client, Tourism Malaysia. The director-general at the time was Datuk Mirza Mohammad Taiyab, Mirza Mohammad’s brother.
Datuk Mirza Mohammad Taiyab has been charged by the Anti-Corruption Agency with accepting dental treatment from Pakar Media.
The court case against Datuk Mirza and Pakar Media is in progress and the charges against both have yet to be proven. Carat Malaysia could not be reached for comment.
Mirza Mohammad will continue to be the director and shareholder of the company. He has the single largest share, 35 per cent, in Pakar Media.
