A director of a consulting company allegedly instigated the directors of two other firms to prepare fictitious quotations which were later submitted to Sultan Mosque as quotations for its digitalisation project.

Mohamad Daud A Rahim, 60, a director of Qirom Consulting at the time of the alleged offences, is said to have instigated Mohd Nasir Mohd Sairi and Mohd Nasral Awang to do so between August and October 2022.

Nasral, 44, was then a director of Onaga Sys, while Nasir, 59, was a director of Fatiin Multimedia.

The Corrupt Practices Investigation Bureau (CPIB) said in a statement: "These fictitious quotations were allegedly intended to mislead Sultan Mosque into believing that Fatiin Multimedia and Onaga Sys were prepared to undertake the digitalisation project for the (mosque) at the quoted prices. Daud allegedly intended to deceive Sultan Mosque into believing that Qirom Consulting, (which) also submitted a quotation for the digitalisation project, had submitted a quotation that was competitive."
