Police don’t rule out foul play in Teoh’s death
Political secretary Teoh Beng Hock died of multiple injuries due to a fall on July 16 but police said it will not rule out foul play.
Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar said police are still classifying the 30-year-old’s demise as sudden death following a preliminary report from the autopsy.
He said the police is investigating the causes that led to Teoh falling to his death.
Teoh died in mysterious circumstances a day after he was held by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in their probe into alleged misappropriation of government allocations by Selangor executive council members.
Police are also probing the anti-graft body’s interrogation techniques.
Khalid said two pathologists from the KL Hospital and UM Medical Centre conducted Teoh’s autopsy, adding the Selangor government was given the opportunity to have its own pathologist but none turned up.
