Chetan Lachman Jethwani said a letter of objection was sent to the MACC chief commissioner over the attempted violation of professional privilege.
The legal firm of Chetan Jethwani & Co has confirmed it was one of two firms visited by officers of MACC and LHDN on Thursday.
In a statement today, he said the MACC and LHDN action was unlawful, indiscriminate and would result in a violation of legal professional privilege. He said five officers from MACC and LHDN had come to his firm on Thursday morning with an order to seize documents. They left after his objections, and returned later with an order to produce documents and an order to have a statement recorded at MACC Putrajaya that afternoon.
