FOR those of you, who do not know how Azam Baki saved Malaysia from an e payment crisis that could have easily spilled over into a banking crisis. READ :The case related to the Revenue Group Bhd, it had to be done without anyone knowing, and if need be deny it, as the MACC boss had to secure Malaysia's economic interest first.
MALAYSIA's anti corruption agency is 57 years old today, but based on the data provided by the agency itself, one can easily identify the Achilles' heel of the agency ; it's prosecution team.
A friend observed yesterday, that in the days when Abdul Gani Patail was the Attorney General, the crown wouldn't prosecute if it did not have a 70 per cent chance of winning the case.
CONSIDER the following ; READ : The MACC opened 2,123 investigation papers on civil servants. In total, 2,046 people were arrested, 1,036 were charged and 464 civil servants were convicted.
BASICALLY this gives you a successful prosecution rate of only 44.78 pet cent or a failure rate of 55.21 per cent .
HOW many lives were ruined because the investigative team and the prosecution team were not air tight in their work?, the numbers above speaks volumes for itself.
BECAUSE the Revenue Group brothers trail is on, the focus had again gone back to the statement by READ : MACC senior director Hishamuddin Hashim as confirming the Revenue Brothers were detained after giving their statements at the MACC headquarters on Jan 25.
THE said detention, prevented the brothers from attending a make or break board meeting the following day. Was this all a coincidence?
WE may never know, but what we do know is a day before the MACC birthday, one more high profile public listed company's case just like the Classita Bhd case ended up with nothing . READ :RGB says MACC probe into company, MD is 'completed and resolved'
