Azam said the investigation paper on the case will be handed over to the Attorney-General's Chambers in two weeks.
He said the investigation paper on the case will be handed over to the Attorney-General's Chambers in two weeks."The case investigation involving those from the ministry is being examined before we submit it to the deputy public prosecutor for study," he told reporters after attending the Corruption-Free Pledge at World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur , here on Tuesday .
Azam said it is up to the deputy public prosecutor to further tidy up the investigation paper and it is sometimes returned to MACC. He was asked to comment on the development of the corruption investigation on foreign worker recruitment involving an officer of Human Resource Minister V. Sivakumar. Earlier, the media reported that the special functions officer of Sivakumar was detained after allegedly acting as runner to collect bribes from certain agents to be given foreign worker recruitment quota.
Meanwhile, commenting on the abuse of power in awarding contract for fibre optics worth RM214.2mil to a company linked to former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, Azman said MACC had yet to open an investigation paper."Apart from that, MACC is also studying information acquired and will open an investigation paper if there is basis for it based on current laws," he said. – Bernama
