PUTRAJAYA - The Public Service Department (JPA) Disciplinary Board will meet soon to discuss the report by the Special Investigation Committee on the shareholding issue involving Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Chief Commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki.
Chief Secretary to the Government Tan Sri Shamsul Azri Abu Bakar said both he and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim had received the report from the committee chairman, who is also Attorney General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar.
"I have forwarded the report to the JPA, and we will convene a Disciplinary Board meeting soon,” he told reporters after the handover of bubur lambuk and the Malaysian Fire and Rescue Department’s Light Operational Vehicle here today.
Shamsul Azri added that the matter is also expected to be raised at the Cabinet meeting tomorrow.
The government had established a special committee to investigate allegations and related issues concerning the MACC Chief Commissioner.
This followed a Bloomberg report claiming that Azam held millions of shares in a financial services company, based on corporate filings.
However, during a recent press conference, Azam maintained that his RM800,000 shareholding in the financial services company was carried out transparently and in accordance with the required procedures. - BERNAMA
