KUALA LUMPUR: Money seized by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for investigation purposes should be kept at Bank Negara Malaysia instead of the commission’s vaults, says the Special Committee on Corruption.

Its chairman Tan Sri Rais Yatim said had this been implemented before, the recent case where nearly US$7mil (RM29mil) seized by the MACC that went missing under its watch would not have happened.
