NGO urges 'whistleblower' to report Sabah corruption case to MACC

PUTRAJAYA: In response to growing allegations of corruption in Sabah, purportedly captured on video, a non-governmental organisation has lodged a report with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), urging the anonymous whistleblower to come forward.

Gerakan Kuasa Rakyat Malaysia (G57) president, Datuk Zulkarnain Mahdar, said that the whistleblower, who has yet to approach the MACC, should have done so from the outset. He emphasised that sharing such allegations on social media contravenes Section 25 of the MACC Act, which mandates that anyone offered, promised, or given a bribe must report it.
