MACC to blame for officer’s death


KUALA LUMPUR: Tears welled up in her eyes as the wife of senior Customs officer Ahmad Sarbaini Mohamad felt vindicated after the Court of Appeal ruled that her husband’s death in 2011 was a result of negligence on the part of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commi­ssion (MACC).

The MACC was ordered by a panel of three judges to pay RM213,000 in damages to Ahmad Sarbaini’s widow Maziah Manap and her family after hearing their appeal yesterday.
