March 21 decision on Aman Palestin's bid to lift freeze order


KUALA LUMPUR: The order to freeze Aman Palestin's bank account cannot be challenged by a judicial review as it falls under the discretionary powers of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) during an investigation, the High Court heard.

Senior Federal Counsel Ahmad Hanir Hambaly, who appeared for the Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC), said the power to issue freeze orders was one of the mechanisms for investigation provided in law and thus, was not amenable to a judicial review.
