The DAP national adviser says the PH presidential council had called for the MACC chief to be suspended pending a probe when a similar controversy erupted in 2022.

PETALING JAYA: DAP national adviser Lim Guan Eng has called for the shareholding allegations against Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission chief Azam Baki to be debated in the Dewan Rakyat.

Lim said he stood by a press statement by the Pakatan Harapan presidential council, issued in January 2022, which called for Azam and several others to be suspended over a shareholding scandal to make way for an independent investigation.

Lim, the Bagan MP, was DAP secretary-general when the 2022 statement was issued. Others who signed the statement were PKR president Anwar Ibrahim, now prime minister, then Upko president Madius Tangau and Amanah president Mohamad Sabu.
