Zeti and Shukri should be held accountable for the RM2.6 billion controversy
Dr Mahathir Mohamad told Reuters yesterday that the Government of Malaysia (GoM) plans to charge Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak on counts of embezzlement and bribery.
However, the Prime Minister told newsmen on the 10th of October 2015 that he did not have enough evidence to lodge a police report against Najib.
Then, weeks later, he accused Najib of dismissing Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail simply because the former Attorney-General (AG) had enough evidence to incriminate him (Najib).
So it is highly likely that he lied to Reuters when declaring that the GoM had a case against Najib.
THE THIRD FORCE
Dr Mahathir Mohamad told Reuters yesterday that the Government of Malaysia (GoM) plans to charge Dato’ Seri Najib Tun Razak on counts of embezzlement and bribery. According to the Prime Minister, Malaysian investigators “have an almost perfect case” against principal suspects who ‘defrauded’ 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and embezzled billions from the fund. But we’ve been hearing that over and over again since 2014, almost as if Mahathir had enough evidence to throw Najib under the bus before running his remains through steam rollers and turbines.
Well, where is that evidence?
Perhaps what he told newsmen on the 10th of October 2015 holds a clue. On that day, he admitted that he did not have enough evidence to lodge a police report against Najib (see video below). What this means, is that the allegations he hurled against Najib were based purely on conjectures and hearsay by the Wall Street Journal and Sarawak Report. Ironically, that seemed enough for him (then) to demand that Najib stepped down on counts of criminal misfeasance and corruption.
