00:00Lawyers representing Topwan Naima Abdul Khalid have expressed disappointment and concern

00:06over the decision by the Police and Attorney General's Chambers, AGC, to classify her police

00:12report against Prime Minister Datuk Sri Anwar Ibrahim and Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission

00:17MACC Chief Tanshri Azambaki as no further action, NFA.

00:22The report, filed on September 30, alleged misconduct and abuse of power by the two

00:28officials, following a Bloomberg News article that claimed the M.A.C.C. had conducted

00:34politically motivated investigations, specifically targeting her late husband, former Finance

00:39Minister Tundaim Zainuddin.

00:42Lawyers Rajesh Nagarajan and Sachpreetraj Singh Sohanpal confirmed that they were formally

00:47notified of the NFA decision via a letter dated June 21, issued by the Central District Police

00:54headquarters. They described the decision as unacceptable, shocking, and contrary to the

01:00principles of governance and the rule of law, especially given that their client had waited

01:04nine months without receiving any substantive updates.

01:08The lawyers also questioned the timing of the NFA classification, noting that it came shortly

01:13after Naima filed a complaint with the Independent Police Conduct Commission, IPCC.

01:18They said the move raises troubling concerns about the integrity of the process.

01:24They further criticised the lack of transparency, stating that no details or findings from the

01:30investigation were ever shared with them or their client.
