‘Respect rule of law, keep emotions out of it’: ex-MACC officers on Azam Baki controversy

KUALA LUMPUR – The Association of Former Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Officers has called for the rule of law to be upheld pertaining to MACC chief Tan Sri Azam Baki’s share trading controversy.

Its president Datuk Mazlan Mohamad, in a statement today, said the association stands by the legal principle that one is innocent until proven otherwise, instead of trial by the public or media.

Mazlan stressed that his association has full confidence in the country’s criminal justice system as well as the legal process, which guarantees the “dignity” of individuals and organisations as enshrined in the federal constitution. – The Vibes, January 10, 2022
