• New MACC chief commissioner Abdul Halim Aman said the probe into the Arm Holdings deal will take more time to complete.

  The agency is seeking mutual legal assistance to obtain statements from several people in Taiwan and the UK.

  Halim also assured that the MACC will take into consideration documents voluntarily submitted by former economy minister Rafizi Ramli to assist with the case.

  

  Halim’s predecessor, Azam Baki, had already expected at least two people to be charged over the case.
