OccupationPolitician

Abdul Manan bin Ismail (28 June 1948 – 12 February 2018) was a Malaysian politician. He was the Member of Parliament for the Paya Besar constituency in Pahang. He is a member of the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO) major component party in the previous governing Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition.[1]

In 2004 general election, he was elected to the Pahang State Legislative Assembly, representing the constituency of Panching.[2]

In the 2008 general election, Abdul Manan contested the Paya Besar parliamentary constituency, replacing former government minister Siti Zaharah Sulaiman as UMNO's nominee for the seat.[2] Abdul Manan won the seat, defeating Mohd Jafri Ab Rashid of the People's Justice Party (PKR) by an 8,503 majority.[3] In 2010 he was appointed chairman of the Intellectual Property Corporation of Malaysia, and in 2013 general election he retained his parliamentary seat with a margin of 7,715 votes.[4]

Death

Abdul Manan died on February 12, 2018, at the age of 69 of suspected heart attack after falling in a bathroom.[5]

Controversy

1MDB case

On 30 June 2020, High Court judge Mohamed Zaini Mazlan has allowed the prosecution’s application to forfeit at least RM265,000 frozen in a bank account belonging to Abdul Manan, to the Malaysian government. The funds were frozen by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) due to links with the 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) fund scandal.[6][7] These funds were purportedly disbursed via an Ambank account opened under the name of former prime minister Najib Razak.[8]
