PETALING JAYA: The government should establish an independent inquiry to investigate the allegations against the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner, after the Securities Commission (SC) was unable to conclusively determine the validity of these allegations, says Academic Prof Dr Edmund Terence Gomez.

Gomez, who had resigned from the MACC Consultation and Corruption Prevention Panel in protest over the panel's inaction towards the allegations against Tan Sri Azam Baki, pointed out that the brevity of the SC’s statement is shocking and its conclusion into the investigation is unacceptable.

“Now that an investigation has finally been undertaken, we are told by the SC that it is unable to determine if Azam had breached the law,” he said in a statement on Wednesday . “What is now required, given the SC’s inability to provide an informed view of the allegations against Azam Baki, is that the government should immediately establish an independent committee to review this matter,” he said.

You and PH totally silence on Zeti's RM700mil is equally suspicious.

NFA. What do you expect. Crime pays if you are an elite and while 3 others were found guilty. Selective standards.

Only when Azam Baki is found guilty then only it becomes acceptable!
