Minister Abdul Rahman denies abuse of power over condominium project

Datuk Seri Abdul Rahman Dahlan has denied any abuse of power in granting an extension of time for the construction of a condominium project when he was the Urban Wellbeing, Housing and Local Government Minister.
Referring to a police report lodged against him by the Penang DAP, the Minister in the Prime Minister's Department said the decision he took was based on the powers clearly given to the minister as stated in the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act.
According to media reports, a police report was lodged on Tuesday by Penang DAP, including Deputy Chief Minister II Dr P. Ramasamy who alleged that Abdul Rahman misused his powers to grant a 12-month extension to a condominium developer in Jalan Kuchai Lama, Kuala Lumpur.
The police report was lodged after the Kuala Lumpur High Court ruled in favour of 104 buyers of condominiums in Jalan Kuchai Lama who had sought compensation for late delivery of their units. - BERNAMA
