KUALA LUMPUR: Bukit Aman is tracking the money flow and all assets linked to Global Ikhwan Services and Business Holdings (GISB) in the country, says Tan Sri Razarudin Husain.
The Inspector-General of Police said the process would take some time based on the investigations involving individuals detained and actionable intelligence obtained.
"For now, we are in the midst of tracking assets and the money flow, be it through several accounts belonging to the company or individuals.
"As for individuals, we are tracking the accounts of GISB members as well as outsiders with links to them.
"So far, most of GISB assets have been sealed through raids conducted in Ops Global," he said when contacted on Friday (Sept 27).
The IGP said most of GISB businesses and premises were not operational following the large-scale raids conducted recently.
"Based on information gathered, GISB business activities have been on a decline since August when their activities were exposed via the Pukas Malaysia Facebook page.
"Subsequently, the people's confidence towards the organisation also dipped and we believe from then on their businesses suffered," he said.
Razarudin said the next step in Ops Global was to gather as much information to complete the ongoing investigations.
"We also urge any former GISB members or victims to come forward and lodge police reports," he said.
More than 300 individuals have been detained in the police investigation of 20 raided care homes linked to GISB since Sept 11.
Police also rescued 572 children in the operation codenamed Ops Global.
In the Ops Global raids conducted on Saturday (Sept 21), Razarudin had said a total of 138 bank accounts containing RM882,795 belonging to GISB had been frozen.
He said the IGP secretariat's Anti-Money Laundering (Amla) division has frozen the accounts under Section 44(1) of the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act (AMLATFPUAA) 2001.
The IGP said Saturday's raids showed there were empty premises, where GISB members are believed to have fled.
A total of 35 investigation papers have been opened since Sept 11.
Police also estimated GISB to have about 10,000 members.
