Ex-MACC chief laments ‘sad excuses’ by politicians that hindered IPCMC - superadmin - 09-16-2021 PETALING JAYA: Numerous “sad excuses” by politicians hindered the implementation of the Independent Police Complaints and Misconduct Commission (IPCMC), a former anti-corruption chief claimed. Abu Kassim Mohamed, who served as the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief commissioner from 2010 to 2016, said if the IPCMC had been put in place, it would have led to a clean police force. “I’ll be blunt about the fears politicians had over the IPCMC. And the excuses they offered are woeful,” he said at a webinar organised by Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) last night. Kassim, however, did not go into detail about the excuses. He said the IPCMC would be able to usher in reforms in the political arena as well as enforcement. - More -
