Johari Amnesty May Lead To Undesirable Consequences Bigger Corruption

Former finance minister II Johari Abdul Ghani said he was not receptive to the idea of amnesty being granted in corruption cases as proposed by former banker Nazir Abdul Razak.
The Federal Territories Umno chief cautioned of the undesirable consequences of granting amnesty for small cases which may lead the offenders to commit bigger corrupt practices.
"There should not be any amnesty for individuals who have committed (the crime of) corruption and they should be punished with sentencing that reflects their offence.
“Why should there be amnesty for corruption when there is no amnesty for other offences under the Penal Code?” Johari (above) asked.
He said there should not be a difference between whether a corrupt act is serious or not.
“All corruption cases are serious regardless of the degree.
“Corruption, big or small, leads to the degradation of a country's system and it is considered a loss for the country," Johari added.

Former banker Nazir Abdul RazakEffective enforcement
Johari said there is also a need for effective enforcement agencies that report directly to Parliament.
“We must ensure there is no selective or double standard in prosecution.
"A full clampdown and enforcement against corruption is definitely the way forward to ensure that our country is free from it," the former Titiwangsa MP said.
While attending an event at the KL World Trade Centre on Friday, Nazir, the younger brother of former prime minister Najib Abdul Razak, was asked a hypothetical question on the country's systemic problems, including corruption.
Nazir pointed to a method introduced by Hong Kong back in the 1970s to address rampant corruption in the port city then, where its government offered amnesty to offences pre-1977 but adopted a strong approach against future violations.
"The second thing I would want to address is corruption, how to break corruption (in this country). There is a model in Hong Kong in the 1970s. They overhauled the system, offered amnesty, and shoot to kill," he had said.
Nazir added that amnesty for past crimes might be possible if they were "nothing serious". - Mkini
