Wrong perception of MACC


THERE is much misconception and hence confusion about the role of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) as an investigation body in line with the provisions contained in the MACC Act 2009.

Some quarters have erroneously said that MACC has prosecutorial powers. This is a gross misstatement, which reflects a lack of understanding of the Constitution.
