Malaysiakini: AG, IGP 'cleared' in black-eye case
Attorney-General Abdul Gani Patail and Inspector-General of Police Musa Hassan have both been cleared of any criminal involvement in Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim's black eye case, according to Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Mohd Nazri Abdul Aziz.
In response to a question from Gobind Singh-Deo (DAP-Puchong) on why no action has been taken by the authorities after Anwar lodged reports with the police and the then Anti-Corruption Agency (ACA) against the duo last July.
Subsequently, the ACA - now called the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission - set up an independent panel to probe the case.
The panel members were Kadir Sulaiman, Wira Mohd Nor and Ahmad Nor Abdullah - all former judges from the Federal Court and Courts of Appeal.
According to Nazri, the investigation by the three-member panel began on July 2 last year.
"The investigation was completed two months later as it was considered a sensitive and high-profile case," he said.
"After a detailed investigation, they found the AG and the IGP did not commit any crime relating to the case as alleged by Anwar," he added.
Anwar had accused both Abdul Gani and Musa of fabricating evidence in an investigation into the beating he received while in police custody by former police chief Abdul Rahim Noor a decade ago.
Anwar, then deputy prime minister, was arrested in 1998 and later jailed for sodomy and corruption. The sodomy conviction was later overturned.
You see, whether Malays, Chinese or Indians, they fight among each other. Anwar is but a political victim of Umno ultras and police brutality...so, why the talk about race????? Poor Anwar, kena black eye...this 'clearance' given by the independent panel is indeed another 'black eye' for Anwar...poor poor Anwar...
