Mad Aris is accused of abusing his power to alienate many reserve land plots in Ampang for commercial purposes.

These include:

• green belts,
• school reserves,
• irrigation and drainage reserves,
• road reserves, buffer zones and
• empty land.

The land plots were alleged to be leased out to his cronies and the latter have in turn re-rented it out to other companies for a higher price.

M. Thomas, the Chairperson of the Residents Action Committee for Taman Nirwana Phase 1 and 2.who has been active in residents' associations for more than 14 years, said the commercialisation of reserve land started following the 1999 polls.

Malaysiakini compiled at least eight alleged land scandals based on information provided by local residents, gathered from memorandums and complaint letters,

These are:

1. The Millennium Curry House restaurant at Jalan Nirwana, Taman Nirwana.
2. The Light Industrial Zone located between the Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2) and Kampung Pandan Dalam.
3. A furniture showroom 'Perabut Cempaka' at Jalan Cempaka 3, Taman Chempaka.
