MACC: Malaysian shuttler under BWF match-fixing investigation not under BAM

KUALA LUMPUR: The professional shuttler under investigation by the Badminton World Federation (BWF) for match-fixing is an independent and is not part of the Badminton Association of Malaysia's stable of players, says the Malaysian Anti Corruption Commission (MACC).

"We have received initial information on the ongoing BWF investigation, and from what little is known, the individual is an independent player and not a national player with BAM," said its deputy chief commissioner (operations) Datuk Seri Azam Baki on Tuesday (Feb 13).
