Why no further action, Daim's widow's lawyers ask Madani


"NFA reflects badly on the police and AGC, confirms the erosion of institutional independence under Madani administration."

Toh Puan Naimah Khalid filed a police report last September over a Bloomberg article on MACC’s investigations into her late husband Tun Daim Zainuddin.

Media reported today, lawyers for Toh Puan Naimah Khalid, the widow of former finance minister Tun Daim Zainuddin, have expressed disappointment with the move to classify her police report against Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief Tan Sri Azam Baki as requiring no further action (NFA).

The report, filed last September, was related to a Bloomberg article concerning MACC’s investigations into Daim before his death on 13 November.

Lawyers Encik Rajesh Nagarajan and Encik Sachpreetraj Singh Sohanpal said they received a letter dated 21 June informing them that the case had been classified as NFA, reported FMT.

“The decision is unacceptable, outrageous and contrary to good governance and the rule of law,” they said in a statement today.

They also noted that the NFA decision came shortly after Naimah filed a complaint with the Independent Police Conduct Commission over what she viewed as delays in investigating her original report.

“No details have been given of who was questioned, what steps were taken, or the reasons for the NFA,” they said.

They also said that the case was closed “quietly” despite its public interest value.

“This decision reflects badly on the police and Attorney-General’s Chambers, and confirms the erosion of institutional independence under the Madani administration.

“We will not be silenced or deflected from our pursuit of justice. Malaysians deserve institutions that serve the public, not those in power,” they said.

Citing sources, Bloomberg reported that Azam had told agency officials that instructions to investigate Daim, as well as former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad and his sons, came from Anwar himself.

Na'imah said the Bloomberg report showed that the charges against her and Daim were a conspiracy to target Anwar’s political opponents by “subverting the institutions of state and enforcement bodies”.

Both the Prime Minister’s Office and MACC have denied the claims in the Bloomberg report.

Daim was charged in January last year with failing to declare assets to MACC, including interests in 38 companies, 19 land plots in five states, six properties, two unit trust accounts, and seven luxury vehicles.

After his death last November, the prosecution withdrew the charges and the court granted an order discharging and acquitting him.

However, the anti-graft agency said that investigations under the MACC Act 2009 and the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act would proceed.

Naimah, who also faces an asset declaration charge, is accused of failing to declare her ownership in various companies, several plots of land in Kuala Lumpur and Pulau Pinang, and two vehicles.
