'We will see', says MACC on purported RM9.5m to lawyer

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) head Dzulkifli Ahmad today could not state whether the alleged RM9.5 million payment to senior lawyer Muhammad Shafee Abdullah would be probed.
"We will see how is the situation later," said MACC chief commissioner Dzulkifli Ahmad when met in Putrajaya.
"I was made to understand that reports were lodged to the police," he added.
He said this in response to a question on whether the graftbusters would be investigating the allegations made by whistleblower website Sarawak Report.
The website alleged that Shafee received RM9.5 million from Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak in two tranches - on Sept 11, 2013 and on Feb 17, 2014.
The website claimed that the money originated from SRC International Sdn Bhd - a company owned by the Finance Ministry.
Kinitv cannot independently verify the claims while both Najib and Shafee has yet to offer their response.
Repeated attempts by Kinitv to contact both Najib and Shafee have been unsuccessful.
