Pen drive 101: Ex-minister schools AG and IGP



Former law minister Zaid Ibrahim has issued pointers to attorney-general Mohamed Apandi Ali and inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar on tackling the pen drive saga.
As for the AG, he said Apandi should speak to his predecessor, Abdul Gani Patail, and then dispatch an investigation team to the United States to examine the pen drive.
“Has he seen the pen drive that Charles (Suresh Morais) allegedly received from his brother (Kevin Anthony Morais)?
“The AG should not be so quick to rubbish serious allegations. He should be interested in the substance of the complaints, and not whether Charles is bankrupt or not.
“There is no need to foam at the mouth when someone makes an allegation about our leaders. There is no need to behave like a personal aide to the prime minister.
“Be cool and professional at all times,” he added in a blog post.
Last Wednesday, Charles revealed his explosive statutory declaration to the media, which alleged a conspiracy in his brother’s murder.
He also claimed to be in possession of a pen drive which details the cases Kevin, a senior deputy public prosecutor, was working on.
The US-based businessman alleged Kevin also told him he was involved in cases involving Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and his wife, Rosmah Mansor.
Kevin had been seconded to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), which
is probing the RM2.6 billion donation and SRC International’s RM42 million transferred into Najib’s personal bank accounts.
The prime minister has denied using public funds for personal gain.
Coward remark uncalled for
Meanwhile, Zaid also took a swipe at the police chief for branding Charles a coward for leaving the country after disclosing his SD.
“This is uncalled for. A more professional reaction would have been to acknowledge the seriousness of the accusation, and to pledge that an investigation team would be sent to Charles’ address in the US as soon as possible.
“His attack on (lawyer) Americk (Sidhu), who represents Charles, and sending the police to interrogate him is harassment that should not have been done by a top police officer.
“Why is Americk helping a client to draft a SD a possible crime, but not Cecil Abraham (in relation to the SD of the late private investigator P Balasubramaniam)?” he added.
Cecil is being investigated by a three-man Advocates and Solicitors Disciplinary Board (ASDB) committee for professional misconduct for allegedly preparing a SD for Balasubramaniam, who was not considered his client.
The contentious SD was to counter Bala'subramaniam’s first sworn statement which had incriminated Najib and several other personalities in relation to the 2006 murder of Mongolian interpreter Altantuya Shaariibuu.
Balasubramaniam also happened to be Americk’s client.
Eight men have been charged in connection with Kevin’s murder, including an army doctor with the rank colonel. -Mkini
