Hadi, seemingly backing MACC’s Azam Baki, claims trial by media make ‘clean’ officials lame ducks

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 9 — PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang hit out at the media today, accusing them of playing judge and executioner in the stock trading controversy implicating the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief Tan Sri Azam Baki.

Hadi said he viewed this concept of free press, which he described as portraying the media playing “the voice of God”, as flawed and prevents “clean” political leaders and government officials from being effective. Azam has been under public scrutiny in recent weeks over his acquisition of millions of shares in two public-listed companies back in 2015.

News about Azam’s holding of shares in several companies were brought to light by a freelance investigative journalist in December last year, and had received keen public interest.

abdulhadiawang I remember clearly you also say no issue with 1MDB in the past and never issued a statement to condemn Najib. Now he has been found guilty by 2 courts. Is that statement still stands or your version of clean is different from ours?
