Sorry, we cannot investigate. Tell it to MACC – EC on Najib’s RM5m ‘offer’

According to Datuk Wira Wan Ahmad Wan Omar, the deputy chairman of the EC (Election Commission) they have no power to investigate the prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak for ‘promising’ the voters in Sibu during the campaign for its by-election when he said that he will ‘sign a cheque’ of RM5million for flood mitigation projects in Rejang Park if BN (Barisan Nasional) had won.

DAP however won the by-election. Wira said that Karpal Singh, the chairman of DAP should lodge his complaint against the MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission). He said “We can still take the complaint but will refer it to the MACC,” Karpal had, after the by-election said that Najib ‘violated election laws’ when he made his offer to the crowd in Sibu and called on the EC and MACC to investigate. Wan Ahmad added that “Other persons, included cabinet ministers, who make promises cannot be charged for the offence of inducement or bribery under the Act. We cannot investigate anything other than what’s specified under the Act… we don’t have the power. However, Section 10 of the Act which covers bribery during elections uses the words “every person would be liable for an offence”. I also feel Karpal was viewing the issue from his perspective. But other legal experts may look at it from other angles and have other interpretations,”
