KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 31 — The Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) has arrested an Umno state assemblyman for allegedly accepting a RM2,000 bribe from a housing developer.The arrest set off charges that the Negri Sembilan assemblyman was a victim of a political stitch-up. He is the third state legislator who has been picked up by the ACA in recent weeks.
Last week, two Parti Keadilan Rakyat state assemblymen were charged in court for accepting bribes to speed up approvals for a housing project.
The ACA has been on a sweep in recent weeks as it uses its expanded powers to root out corruption.
The agency has also nabbed 36 Puspakom officers and 21 runners for suspected graft to certify vehicles as roadworthy.
tunku : so its umno state assemblyman.if it was opposition assemblyman than they will start all the protest etc and call it political plot,conspiracy etc but i guess opposition will say that the umno assemblyman is guilty before he is charged because he is from umno.this assemblyman too caught red handed with cash like those two of pkr.
this is negri mb comments when asked by reporters,Menteri Besar Negeri Sembilan, Datuk Seri Mohamad Hasan yang dihubungi Utusan Malaysia berkata, beliau menyerahkan sepenuhnya kes itu kepada BPR untuk menjalankan siasatan.“Kita percaya dengan kewibawaan BPR, biarlah mereka buat siasatan secara menyeluruh dengan mengambil kira segenap aspek,” katanya. just compare it with perak's mb comment.

Yeah, Well what about the geaser who sold Augusta for 1 Euro Dollar and sold it for a whopping 150+million?
kudos to ACA for another astonishing work.
this shows that the ACA is doing their job well and act accordingly.no political conspiracy whatsoever.this also prove that the ACA doesnt "pick" their "victim".they only act when all the evidence is adequate for and arrest and investigation.
give more support to the ACA and lets hope they'll continue to carry on their duty well.
BPR semakin lama semakin efektif.kalau sebelum ini dikatakan integriti BPR boleh dipersoalkan namum kini mereka sedang mengorak langkah untuk mendapat semula keyakinan rakyat.
ternyata juga BPR tidak "pilih bulu" dalam menjalankan siasatan dan ternyata tiada konspirasi.
mereka hanya menjalankan tugas.berilah mereka peluang untuk mereka menonjolkan kredibiliti mereka.
I think BPR is playing politics with the public. Yes, the few arrests among assemlyman, but whatabout the bigger cases that have been investigated in the past? What has become to those cases? We are sure there are more than just meets the EARS.
