Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin is leading the prosecution in a criminal case against Lim Guan Eng.GEORGE TOWN: A deputy public prosecutor leading the case against Lim Guan Eng for alleged criminal misappropriation of property has clarified his remarks about a “99% conviction” which drew criticism from lawyers.
Lead prosecutor Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) said he had meant that cases that are taken up for prosecution are those with a 99% chance of conviction.
“We are confident with the upcoming trial. The policy at the Attorney-General’s Chambers and the MACC is that we would only pursue cases that have 99% chance of conviction,” he told FMT.
“Of the cases that we prosecute 99% are the ones with a chance of successfully resulting in a conviction,” he said.
