MACC can investigate anyone, including my son-in-law: Nik Aziz

2009/11/08

KOTA BAHARU: Kelantan Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat said it was the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's (MACC) prerogative to investigate anyone, including his son-in-law, Abdul Ariffahmi Abdul Rahman, the Chief Executive Officer of Perbadanan Menteri Besar Kelantan.

Nik Aziz who is also PAS spiritual leader said if there was any truth in the allegations by a blogger on his son-in-law, it would personally thank the blogger but if there was no truth in such allegations, then he would bear the consequences for such an allegation.

"Twice before he was investigated and both times there was nothing. This is probably a game played by some bloggers...if there is no truth in their allegations they will pay for their sin," he told reporters at his residence in Pulau Melaka here today.

MACC recently went to Abdul Ariffahmi's office, to investigate allegations of corruption, as claimed by a blogger.

Meanwhile, speaking of the 1-3 defeat suffered by Kelantan, against Negeri Sembilan in the Malaysia Cup final at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil last night, Nik Aziz said it is something the fans must learn to accept because in sports, it is normal to win or lose a match.

"We had worked very hard to reach the final but if we are not able to win the cup, we must accept the defeat and work harder," he said. - Bernama
