Chief commissioner Azam Baki said this was to change the public’s perception that MACC was only looking for the “small fries” and not going after the “big sharks”.

“This is only their perception because sometimes people don’t keep up with the mainstream media reports. Every high-profile case that we investigate has been reported, including the prosecutions,” he told Bernama.

He said MACC always did its best to take action against corruption cases that involved leakages which would cause harm to the people and the country.

On transparency in its investigations, Azam said MACC had a complaints committee and strict action would be taken against MACC personnel involved in corruption or misconduct.

“We ourselves will charge them (MACC personnel) in court if there is misconduct. I will not compromise if any of my officers or personnel are involved in misconduct,” he said.
