PETALING JAYA: Police will investigate a report against Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki following his admission that his younger brother had used his securities account to acquire shares in several companies.

Home Minister Datuk Seri Hamzah Zainudin said they had taken note of the police report lodged against Azam.

“We just received the report, but we will investigate according to certain Acts,” he said at a press conference during a visit to Taman Sri Nanding flood victims in Hulu Langat yesterday, where he also handed over identity documents to those who lost theirs during the flood.
