AGC did not authorise MACC's 'nine recordings' wiretap, Apandi tells court


Making points: Mohamed Apandi claimed article written by Lim had defamed him.

KUALA LUMPUR: The Attorney General (AG)'s Chambers did not authorise any wiretapping that resulted in the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC)'s infamous nine recordings, says Tan Sri Mohamed Apandi Ali.

He told the High Court at the SRC International Sdn Bhd trial here on Monday while the AG is empowered to authorise a lawful interception of phone conversations, no permission was sought by MACC for the wiretaps.
