PUTRAJAYA: Anti-graft investigators hope a police officer’s seized mobile phone will yield more information on the protection racket said to be provided by senior cops in Melaka.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) sources said that with the handphone in their possession, investigators aim to trace the activities of the racket and get more names of those involved.
