Pengerusi DAP Lim Guan Eng mempersoalkan tindakan Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) tidak membuka kertas siasatan terhadap ketua pesuruhjayanya, Azam Baki kerana didakwa melanggar undang-undang dalam pembelian saham.
Sebaliknya katanya, Azam mengesahkan SPRM telah membuka kertas siasatan terhadap Hakim Mahkamah Rayuan, Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali.
"Mengapa SPRM gagal membuka serta-merta kertas siasatan ke atas Azam Baki kerana melanggar undang-undang dalam pembelian berjuta-juta saham bernilai jutaan ringgit?" katanya dalam kenyataan media, hari ini.
Terdahulu SPRM dilaporkan mengesahkan kertas siasatan terhadap Nazlan dibuka susulan menerima laporan mengenai artikel yang disiarkan di blog Malaysia Today milik Raja Petra Kamaruddin.
Artikel itu mendakwa hakim berkenaan mempunyai “kekayaan yang tidak dapat dijelaskan”. Nazlan membuat laporan polis berhubung artikel berkenaan pada 21 April lalu. Baca seterusnya di sini...

Why open investigation paper
on judge, but not Azam Baki?...
DAP chairperson Lim Guan Eng is questioning why the MACC failed to immediately open an investigation paper into its own chief over a proxy stock trading scandal when it was quick to do so in the case of Court of Appeal judge Mohd Nazlan Mohd Ghazali.
"Following MACC chief commissioner Azam’s confirmation that MACC has opened an investigation paper into Nazlan, the question that is being asked - why did MACC fail to immediately open an investigation paper on Azam Baki for (allegedly) breaching the law in purchasing millions of shares?” said Lim who is also Bagan MP in a statement today.
He also asked why the source of the speculation over Nazlan was not being investigated. "Azam explained that the probe was part of MACC’s procedure to investigate whenever a report is lodged.
“Blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin's (RPK) portal Malaysia Today had accused Nazlan of having "unexplained wealth".
"Why is there no criminal investigation into RPK’s allegations, which have consistently been proven to be false and baseless?" asked Lim.
Investigate RPK
He said that even though RPK is in exile in London, he should be asked to return to subject himself to an investigation. "If RPK refuses to return and if there are sufficient grounds for criminal charges to be filed, then RPK should be extradited," added Lim.
Malaysia Today has accused Nazlan of having "unexplained wealth". Nazlan has lodged a police report over the article.
Previously, another allegation was circulated claiming that Nazlan was a relative of former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad. Mahathir's daughter Marina said the family would be flattered if a learned judge was their relative but confirmed that Nazlan was not.
Former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak's legal team have also tried to discredit Nazlan by claiming that he had a conflict of interest in the 1MDB case.
When Nazlan was a High Court judge in 2020, he sentenced Najib to 12 years in prison and RM210 million for corruption, abuse of power and money laundering. The Court of Appeal upheld the decision last year. Najib is appealing the case in Federal Court.
Azam, meanwhile, drew criticism over his ownership of 1,930,000 shares in Gets Global Berhad (previously KBES Berhad) on April 30, 2015, worth around RM772,000 at the time.
Azam claimed the shares were not his but were purchased by his brother in his name, prompting the Securities Commission (SC) to look into possible misuse of his trading account. "The SC found there was ‘no conclusive evidence’ that Azam (above) had breached the Securities Industry (Central Depositories) Act 1991 (Sicda). - LGE,mk
With the iron-clad corruption evidence against him, Malaysia’s chief graft buster Azam baki should have been convicted and punished long ago, instead, he is now at large to launch a dubious probe against Judge Nazlan Ghazalie based on a corruption accusation by notorious mercenary blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin who habitually makes false and malicious allegations.
That this is a vicious political move is evident from the fact that Nazlan is the much-acclaimed judge who convicted former PM Najib Razak who is criminally involved in the 1MDB infamy often referred to as the world’s largest heist of government funds.
What kind of a topsy-turvy government Malaysia has when its openly corrupted anti-corruption chief roams free to inflict damage against a judge universally acclaimed for his integrity and courage? Is there a future for such a country whose system of governance rewards the bad and punishes the good? - Kim Quek
The difference is Azam is a low life takde maruah Malay criminal while Judge Nazlan is an honorable and a well respected Malay professional. - All things considered
Don't you find it odd that RPK alleged on 20th April that Nazlan is being investigated while Azam Baki stated the MACC open investigation papers on 23rd April? Even though Azam Baki claimed the investigation is based on local reports made on the matter, how do one reconcile the fact that RPK somehow had prior knowledge of it happening?There are hidden hands on this issue, and we know what they are trying to achieve with this false flag manoeuvre. - Sharifuddin Abdul Latiff
Is it pay-back time for Azam Baki to his political masters? The report was lodged against RPK but MACC has chosen to remain silent on who is being investigated that gives a political twist to the issue as if Mohd Nazlan is being investigated for corruption. That is the general perception from MACC's curt statement. But the bigger question is whether MACC has the credibility to investigate the judge when foremost in the people's mind is when is MACC going to investigate its own honcho with alleged evidence of corruption? Why is this obvious case of Azam Baki being covered up? Isn't it a conflict of interest for Azam Baki to be investigating corruption allegations against the judge that too by the notorious mercenary blogger who habitually makes false and malicious allegations? Can we have some clarification from the PM on who is being investigated any by whom? - Way to go
Nazlan having $1m ringgit in his account is nothing unusual as he was previously the Group General Manager and chief legal counsel of Maybank. His total remuneration would have been in the circa of $360,000 to $500,000 per annum. On the other hand, for a career government officer to have $5,000,000 in his stock trading account is nothing short of fishy. - BrownCheetah 9736
The MACC Commissioner Azam Baki has a closet full of misdemeanor shenanigans reports of the 3 corrupted parties of UMNO, PAS and BERSATU!! Takut takut nanti rahsia terbongkar. So, Azam is holding them to their b*l*s!!! Welcome to Malaysia where thieves roam free and the authorities chose to keep an eye closed.Any report on DAP.....speedy gonzalez investigation!!! - Ketuk Ketampi
cheers.
