Guan Eng accuses Azam Baki of selective prosecution, demands resignation as MACC chief

KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 6 — Federal Opposition lawmaker Lim Guan Eng today accused Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief Tan Sri Azam Baki of selective legal action against political leaders in the country.

“This raises the question of double standards by MACC as to why Zahid was investigated and charged,” the DAP national chairman added in a statement. In June, Zahid told the court in his corruption trial that Jeli MP Mustapa, Masjid Tanah MP Mas Ermieyati, and Bagan Serai MP Dr Noor Azmi quit Umno for Bersatu after Election 2018 to avoid being investigated by the MACC.

He also claimed that Dr Noor Azmi’s brother had misappropriated funds meant for development in Bagan Serai.
