Ismail Sabri must speak up on Azam Baki scandal – Gobind Singh Deo

[superadmin]

THE concerns about Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki were raised by Sg Buloh MP R. Sivarasa last month.

The Anti-Corruption Advisory Board (LPPR) said it sought and was satisfied with Azam’s explanation.

The Securities Commission (SC) thereafter in a statement said it would be in touch with Azam for an explanation, citing certain provisions in the Securities Industry (Central Depositories) Act 1991.

The prime minister as the minister in charge of the MACC must now state:

1. Whether he was aware of the probe the Anti-Corruption Advisory Board held with respect to the allegations against Azam?

2. Whether LPPR had the power to conduct that probe and if so, under which provisions of law did it act and how was the probe conducted?
