Man who accused MACC of RM10m plot charged with obstructing investigations

KUALA LUMPUR, March 7 — Mohamad Shafiq Abdul Halim, who is said to be a researcher for Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia’s former information chief Datuk Wan Saiful Wan Jan, today claimed trial to a charge of obstructing the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission’s (MACC) investigations.

He was charged under Section 48 of the MACC Act, which makes it an offence for any person who fails to comply with any lawful demand, notice, order or requirement of an MACC officer in the execution of the MACC officer’s duties.



He was accused of having failed on March 3 to comply with an MACC officer’s order to appear at the commission’s headquarters in Putrajaya to be investigated.

Sessions Court judge Suzana Hussain fixed bail at RM10,000 with one surety as agreed by both the prosecution and the defence, and scheduled April 7 to be the next mention for this case.

A 44-second video clip on TikTok that purportedly showed Shafiq had been making the rounds on social media since March 21.

In the video, he alleged that the MACC had offered to pay Wan Saiful a bribe of RM10 million amount if the latter were to provide a statement that he took bribes on the orders of Bersatu president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.



The MACC on March 21 itself rejected the allegations in the video as being defamatory.
