PETALING JAYA: PKR deputy president Nurul Izzah Anwar has called for the country's top graft busters to be placed under the Parliament's oversight, alleging that some of the body's investigations are done in a "high-handed" manner. Such oversight would not interfere with investigations, but it would help ensure that the law governing the MACC evolves with greater transparency and public confidence." Nurul Izzah said she had "consistently" sounded the alarm about the systemic risks such concerns pose, and will support moves to resolve them. "Parliamentary oversight of the MACC is not an attack on anti-corruption efforts — it is their completion. "The credibility of that fight depends on public trust.
