MPs: Govt should cooperate with whistleblowers, not harassing them theSun theSundaily corruption wistleblower AzamBaki SPRM MACC

: The government should stop harassing the whistleblower who has spoken up against wrongdoing allegedly committed by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief Tan Sri Azam Baki, opposition MPs, said today.

“The government should co-operate with people who speak up, have released damaging evidence, and acknowledge their contributions instead of treating them like wrongdoers,” the group was quoted saying by The Malaysian Insight. The group was referring to the police investigating journalist Lalitha Kunaratnam, who revealed that Azam acquired 2.15 million shares in Excel Force MSC Berhad in 2015, while he was director of investigations, as well as 1.93 million shares in Gets Global Berhad the same year and 1.02 million shares in Gets Global the following year, and that he may have not declared them.
