PETALING JAYA: The family of the late Daim Zainuddin has obtained a temporary gag order preventing the disclosure of the identities of the respondents and details of the properties in a new Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) forfeiture case.

MACC had applied to the Kuala Lumpur sessions court earlier today to obtain a forfeiture order on properties linked to Daim and his family, Berita Harian reported.

In its application, the anti-graft agency also sought a court order to publish a notice in the Government Gazette, allowing interested parties to appear in court and show cause why the properties should not be forfeited.

The family’s lawyer, Nizamuddin Abdul Hamid, told the court during proceedings today the gag order was needed to protect his clients’ personal information, including their names and bank details.

Of coz bank account too much sure ada orang "taken" family members

Atok dah lama merancang un bebal akecema je yg lalai🫢😁🤣

the more you tried to cover it up, the more rakyat know it's A LOT

niamah why need to preventing the disclosure of the identities of the respondents and details of the properties?

bcoz that would reveal individuals and networks directly or indirectly involved with their gang

because it is not proven guilty or not yet.
imagine you got millions then macc said your own property is proxy of somebody else and wanna forfeit it.
now judge ask you go court and tell the whole story. because of that your privacy no more liao.
is it fair?

Nothing to hide konon. Ptui

True. But they alrrady know the identities and details of Naim and family, those don't need to be hidden anymore. So whose details are they trying to keep hidden, that's the question.

If its proven the money is obtained illegally, can confiscate?

Someone probably work very hard in his life. Meanwhile, others are just lazy according to Atuk

This case is also good since his wife is getting an answer from the Federal Court. By right, it’s the prosecution’s job to prove the case, not for you to prove that you’re not guilty. That’s the established principle. If your car was stolen and used in a robbery, they can’t expect you to prove you’re not the robber or that you weren’t abetting in the robbery.

MACC ho-yeh 💪

Topkek this is really jurisdiction overreach. This can be politically weaponized to killed of any of your enemy for the gomen of the day.

"In its application, the anti-graft agency also sought a court order to publish a notice in the Government Gazette, allowing interested parties to appear in court and show cause why the properties should not be forfeited."
because it is not yet conlan7firm the properties is linked/proxy to daim yet. later if proven it is not linked, then the owner of the properties privacy no more liao. if they want publish whose property it belong after colan7firm it is linked to daim, then by all means show and tell.

yup

So they expect you to declare any illegal assets 😉 instead of the prosecution having to prove your assets are illegal. It’s also a safety issue, since it may involves your family/kids’ addresses, bank accounts, and so on. It’s like you’re already guilty until proven innocent, a new principle under the rocket and AI robot era.
