The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has denied claims that an honorary secretary of a youth club was intimidated to give a statement during a probe over cash missing from former youth and sports minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman’s house.

The agency’s investigation director Norazlan Mohd Razali (above) said the allegations made by Siti Nurul Hidayah Shaziman who claimed that she had been threatened, verbally abused and forced to give a statement was groundless.
