PUTRAJAYA, June 30 — The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has set up a multi-agency task force to investigate allegations of graft against Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud, the Star reported today

The task force consists of representatives from agencies such as the Attorney-General’s Chambers and the MACC itself to “speed up” the investigations, said the report.

Once the investigations are completed, the MACC said a report will be submitted to Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail for action.

The Star also reported that the MACC also said that once the investigations are completed and the deputy public prosecutor has made a decision, an operations evaluation panel will appraise the integrity and impartiality of the commission in handling the probe.
