The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has denied suggestions by website Malaysia Today that leaks about its probe into 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) and the bank accounts of the prime minister’s wife came from within the anti-graft agency.
MACC also cleared a former member of its Anti-Corruption Advisory Board (ACAB), Tan Sri Rashpal Singh, of any wrongdoing as reported by Malaysia Today, which alleged that the ex anti-graft panelist had leaked information to whistle-blower website Sarawak Report.
Malaysia Today, run by UK-based blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin, alleged that Rashpal had leaked information in two articles titled “Return of the Jedi: The Return Match for Najib” on July 18 and “Plumber Wanted: To plug the leak in the Special Task Force” published yesterday.
