High Court: MACC’s night interrogation illegal

From Malaysia Kini

By Hafiz Yatim

In a landmark decision today, the Kuala Lumpur High Court ruled the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission is not entitled to interrogate witnesses late at night.

Justice Mohd Ariff Md Yusof ruled that it was illegal for the MACC to question its witnesses at night as such questioning must be done during the daytime.

“The term day to day as stipulated in the MACC Act cannot mean round the clock.”

“Following this, the court allows the application for the declaration,” he said.

He also ordered costs to be paid to the plaintiff, Kajang councillor Tan Boon Hwa (left).

Tan filed a suit on July 22 claiming that the MACC had falsely imprisoned him when he was detained for questioning during the odd hours.

He said that he was questioned late at night along with the dead political aide Teoh Beng Hock on July 16.

MACC meanwhile had contended they had the right to interrogate witnesses at odd hours.

    MACC….by maintaining their stance of their right to interrogate witnesses at odd hours gives everyone the impression that they are above the law! Ask them if they dare “touch” anyone from BN….we have a long list of rotten politicans (past and present) who are still roaming free despite being exposed! What say you, MACC? Tadak bodek ka?!!!!!!!

    DSAI! One issue is crystal clear as far as the Rakyat is concerned and that is we desperately need a change of Government as otherwise Malaysia is in serious trouble! FROM THE TOP IN PUTRAJAYA TO THE GRASSROOTS ALL ARE WASHOUTS!!!!!!!!!!
