Wee asks IGP for a copy of MACC’s police report

PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong has written to Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun to ask for a copy of the police report made by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) on the leak of its investigation papers into the Penang undersea tunnel project.

“I hope all the matters in obtaining a copy of the police report will go smoothly,” the MCA president said on his Facebook page yesterday.

The Facebook post was accompanied by the letter Dr Wee sent to Mohamad Fuzi.

He also sent a copy to Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Mohamed Hanipa Maidin and MACC chief commissioner Datuk Seri Shukri Abdull.

It was reported on Tuesday that Mohamed Hanipa, in the Dewan Rakyat, told Dr Wee to obtain a copy of the police report by MACC on his own.

Dr Wee said since Mohamed Hanipa acknowledged in the House that the MACC had lodged a police report over the matter on Feb 28, this proved that the documents were indeed from them.

He said the leaked documents had resulted in the prosecution of a man who had his “Datuk Seri” title stripped for allegedly receiving RM19mil as a bribe to help resolve the MACC probe.

He was referring to businessman G. Gnanaraja, 38, who was charged with deceiving a managing director into paying him RM19mil to help resolve the MACC probe into the Penang undersea tunnel project.

Dr Wee added that Malaysians were looking forward to the development of the Penang undersea tunnel investigation.

“Will MACC still be able to take stern action to uphold justice based on the existing evidence?” he asked.
