Nazri: Government not delaying prosecuting NFCorp

KUALA LUMPUR, March 3 – Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz today denied claims the federal government was dragging its feet in prosecuting the National Feedlot Corporation (NFCorp) directors, insisting the police were still investigating the case.

“No. As the minister in charge of law, I assure you I know that the A-G and his chambers are doing their work. There is no such thing as delaying the process. Even if there is a delay, a decision will be made on the prosecution,” the Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (picture) was quoted by Bernama as saying today in Kuala Kangsar.

CCID director Datuk Syed Ismail Syed Azizan had announced earlier this week that the police had recommended the cattle-farming company’s top executives be charged with criminal breach of trust (CBT).
