The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has arrested a lawyer who allegedly tried to bribe a deputy public prosecutor (DPP) to induce the release of her client who is charged with robbery.

The 54-year-old woman lawyer is alleged to have offered RM1,000 to the DPP at the female toilet of the Shah Alam Court Complex about 3pm yesterday, in exchange for letting her client, who is facing robbery charges, off the hook.
