Pakatan leadership want MACC chief and anti-corruption board chairman investigated - superadmin - 01-07-2022 Pakatan leadership want MACC chief and anti-corruption board chairman investigated immediately KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 7 — The Pakatan Harapan (PH) Presidential Council is calling for the formation of an independent body to investigate possible elements of corruption and abuse of power by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief Tan Sri Azam Baki and Anti-Corruption Advisory Board (LPPR) chairman Tan Sri Abu Zahar Ujang. They said Azam’s explanation that millions of publicly-listed shares were bought in his name by his brother was unacceptable as it raised the issue of conflict of interest and breach of law. “This breach of law can be tied to Section 25(4) of the Securities Industry (Central Depositories) Act 1991, which comes with an RM3 million fine or a jail term of up to 10 years if found guilty. “There is also the issue of where the money to buy these shares came from,” they said in a statement today. - More -
