  "summary": "The Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) did not interfere in the decision to return former Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS) director-general Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain to the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM), according to Attorney-General Tan Sri Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar. The AGC's responsibility is to provide legal advice, and this matter is considered an administrative action by the Home Ministry. Mohd Shuhaily's return to duty with the PDRM was announced by Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, after Saifuddin requested the Attorney General's intervention to reopen an investigation into his 2015 beating by Mohd Shuhaily. The AGC is currently drafting a provision for the separation of roles between the Public Prosecutor and the Attorney General.",
