Video clip case: At least two individuals to be charged, says Azam Baki


BANGI: At least two individuals are expected to be charged in connection with a video clip of the alleged corruption scandal involving a Sabah state assemblyman.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki said he will make the announcement of the prosecution of the two individuals soon.

"I will announce in a very short time the charging of the individuals in the case," he told reporters after attending the second MACC Law Enforcement Accredited Programme Convocation.

It was reported that the MACC has completed the investigation paper regarding a video clip of the alleged corruption scandal involving a Sabah state assemblyman.

According to a source, the investigation paper was sent to the prosecution for review two weeks ago.

The source said there is a possibility that prosecutions will be carried out against several individuals.

Meanwhile, Azam confirmed the matter and said that there might be further prosecutions against several other individuals.

Recently, several video recordings have gone viral, allegedly showing conversations related to corruption between certain individuals and several Sabah lawmakers regarding the issue of mineral mining licensing in the state.

The MACC had previously announced that it had opened investigation papers regarding the matter and conducted a thorough investigation, including digital forensic analysis of the evidence.
