Green light for MACC to probe ministry officers


KUALA LUMPUR: The Home Ministry is giving ample leeway to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) to investigate its officers in connection with the RM596mil sukuk misappropriation, says Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail.

“As someone who is leading the ministry, I feel the MACC should be given ample space to fulfil its duties in accordance with existing laws,” he said to reporters after attending the 216th Police Day celebration at the Police Training Centre (Pulapol) here yesterday.
