PUTRAJAYA: Lawyers representing Tun Daim Zainuddin's family expressed dissatisfaction with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for not disclosing the specific offence under investigation.

Rajesh Nagarajan described the entire questioning as 'one giant fishing expedition', aimed at gathering information to charge Daim.

Despite posing over 50 questions to Daim's wife, Toh Puan Nai'mah Khalid, the investigators failed to inform their client of the alleged offence.

He argued that the anti-graft buster's approach at questioning without a clear basis goes against the principles of natural justice.

"What section are you talking about? If you (MACC) are referring to gratification, it must obviously be gratification because it is the MACC. Who gave gratification to whom? How much was given? When did this occur? Zero.

"How can you investigate someone and ask for details when you're not even informing them of the offence? You are not even disclosing what the offence is," said Rajesh.
