KL Bar Talk: Investigative Powers under the MACC Act 2009 & AMLA 2001: A Practical Guide for Defence Counsel

Our Managing Partner, Zander Lim, was invited to speak at the Kuala Lumpur Bar on “Investigative Powers under the MACC Act 2009 & AMLA 2001 (As Amended 2026): A Practical Guide for Defence Counsel”.

Drawing from his experience as a former Deputy Public Prosecutor with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission, Zander shared practical insights on investigative powers under the the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009 and Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing, Anti-Restricted Activity Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001, and their implications for defence counsel when advising and representing clients during investigations.

We thank the Kuala Lumpur Bar for the invitation and the opportunity to engage with fellow members of the legal profession.
