KUALA LUMPUR, April 2 — An anti-graft officer watched pornography on his office computer hours before Teoh Beng Hock was found dead, the royal commission of inquiry (RCI) investigating Teoh’s death said today.The RCI secretariat released today its special investigator’s analysis of Selangor Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officer Raymond Nion’s computer and the computers belonging to five other anti-graft officers.
The RCI revealed last Thursday that Selangor MACC assistant superintendent Mohd Ashraf Mohd Yunus had also viewed pornography on his office computer in the wee hours of July 16, 2009, after interviewing Teoh.
“Raymond Nion... Access to pornography sites, movies, music,” said RCI special investigator Michael Leslie Squires in his interim report today.
“Used for access to Internet browsing overnight on 16/07/2009,” he added.
Keeping and distributing pornography is an offence in Malaysia.
Ashraf has said he and another MACC officer, Arman Alies, had interviewed Teoh from 10.30pm on July 15, 2009 to 12.30am the following day.
Teoh’s body was found hours later on the fifth-floor corridor of Plaza Masalam in Shah Alam after the interview at the then-Selangor MACC headquarters on the 14th floor.
The anti-graft officers were investigating a claim that Teoh’s boss, Ean Yong Hian Wah, was abusing state funds.
Ean Yong is a Selangor state executive councillor and Seri Kembangan assemblyman from the DAP.
