Datuk Seri Dr KK Chai, the founder of KK Super Mart, and his wife Datin Seri Loh Siew Mui are among those expected to be charged.
The AGC also mentioned that the vendor Xin Jian Chang Sdn Bhd will face charges under Section 109 of the Penal Code for assisting in the alleged offence by supplying the socks to the convenience store chain.
The directors of KK Super Mart and the vendor will each face charges in separate courts for their respective alleged offences.
