Attorney-General, IGP & MACC Chief: Stop The Fabrications and Lies
Din Merican
People have asked me on this blog why I don’t seem to write about Sodomy II. They are curious if I have abandoned Anwar Ibrahim’s cause or struggle. They are curious if I know something about Anwar that I don’t seem to want to write in his defence, or report about his on-going trial.
Yes, I do know a lot of things about Anwar, and respect his intellectualism and tenacity in the face of adversity. I also know that he is not guilty of the charge they have framed against him, whether in Sodomy I or Sodomy II. I know a lot of things about Anwar to know that Sodomy II is as evil as Sodomy I.
Sodomy 2 is a lost cause
So, why don’t I write about Anwar’s trial? Because, it is a lost cause! Because the BN government is galvanizing all its powers to fix Anwar and they will convict him by hook or by crook. In Sodomy I, the combination of the government’s might was used – the Police, the Attorney-General and the Courts. The same base tactic is being used again in Sodomy II, nothing creative, nothing ingenuous. So there is nothing more to write on that subject as far as I am concerned.
I have become “Lelah” (the closest English word I can think of is “exasperated”), knowing that Sodomy II will end like Sodomy I. If such a thing can happen to a former Deputy Prime Minister and incumbent Opposition Leader and Member of Parliament for Permatang Pauh, what hope is there for Rule of Law, for Truth and Justice to prevail in our beloved country?
Never Give Up Hope
But I am being reminded by concerned Malaysians that we cannot give up hope. For the sake of our future generations, we must believe that change is possible, if we want it. We must believe that the struggle must not end with just the fight for Justice for Anwar.
We now have the opportunity to send a strong message to this UMNO-BN government that it must change, or it will be changed. We can direct the minds of the masses to recognize the fabrications and lies in the case of Kugan, Teoh Beng Hock, Altantuya Shariibu, Raja Petra Kamarudin, Dato’ Ramli Yusuff and Lawyer Rosli Dahlan.
We can galvanise public opinion so that the perpetrators are identified and be remembered so that they cannot hoodwink us to believe otherwise. It used to be said that history is written by the victors. But in this cyber world, the pens of the individual observers can reach out to the hearts and mind of the masses. We can overcome the lies of the mainstream media which are nothing more than propaganda tools of the government.
Teoh Beng Hock’s Suicide Note: The Mother of All Fabrications
While the family is still mourning Teoh Beng Hock’s death. While Malaysians are still infuriated by the death of a young man whom the MACC has admitted was needed just as a witness. While the facts show Teoh was thrown out of the 14th Floor office of the MACC Shah Alam office, the MACC is conniving at a cover up.
It is incredulous that on the day of the incident, the Selangor MACC Director should see it fit to run and seek directions from Dato’ Abu Kassim in Putrajaya instead of attending to Teoh’s death. That Abu Kassim would have then directed a denial to be issued shows his complicity in this cover up. It is unbelievable that the whole machinery of the MACC, the Police and the AG’s office are then seen working in concert towards this cover up.
Still, the public was willing to give the MACC a chance to explain what happened through the Coroner’s Enquiry. But now, at this late stage, it is just boggles in my mind that AG Gani is showing contempt to all Malaysians by contriving a “suicide note”. This is an affront to Malaysian sensibilities and sense of common decency and etiquette. This is insulting Malaysian intelligence. This is just too revolting.
Gani’s Modus Operandi, IGP’s Badge of Deceit and MACC’s SOP
Already, Attorney General Gani Patail has been embroiled in numerous allegations of fabrications and lies. Lawyer Manjit Singh Dhillon had previously accused Gani Patail of fabrication in Nallakaruppan’s firearm’s case. Dato’ Mat Zin, former KL Police OCCI, had also accused Gani Patail and Musa Hassan of fabricating evidence in Anwar’s black eye case. These two man are just too tainted. And yet Gani Patail now wants Malaysians to believe the existence of a suicide note?
I will not bother commenting any further than to just quote what my good friend and Member of Parliament Gobin Singh Deo has said to Gani Patail:
“ I say it again, resign. Take the blame, do it honourably. If this can happen wit Teoh’s case, what about other cases and prosecutions?”
Indeed, what about other cases? While in Teoh’s case, they fabricated a suicide note, what did they do in the Altantuya murder case? Did they not make the Immigration records disappear? Did they not do that after they made Altantuya herself disappear? Or more like blown her to bits. Yes, they C4’d her and then erased the Immigration records of her entry. Yes that’s what they did – fabricate and lie. Two policemen were convicted while Abdul Razak Baginda was acquitted. AG Gani did not appeal although the two policemen could not have done it on their own. AG Gani did not appeal and Razak Baginda made a quick exit out of the country.He is now abroad with not a care in the world!
The AG is also known to have doctored the map and photograph of Pulau Batu Puteh for the hearings at the International Court of Justice at The Hague. In this case, the Singaporeans caught him red handed. As a result, we lost Pulau Batu Putih. He should have resigned but he didn’t.
