MACC probe against me a form of 'intimidation', says Rafizi

Pandan MP Rafizi Ramli has described MACC’s investigation into him as a form of intimidation, linking it to his recent demand that chief commissioner Azam Baki be suspended.

Rafizi said MACC had “suddenly become active” in probing allegations of misconduct and corruption during his tenure as economy minister, centring on two major national policies - the Silicon Vision Programme and the National Energy Transition Roadmap (NETR)...

This is why PM should have suspended Azam when controversy broke, he says.
