Five opposition lawmakers piled more pressure on Attorney General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail (pic) after they lodged separate reports on his alleged misconduct which were contained in a statutory declaration affirmed by a retired police officer.
The five - Shamsul Iskandar @ Yusre Mohd Akin (PKR-Bukit Katil), Datuk Takiyudin Hassan (PAS-Kota Baru), Teo Kok Seong (DAP-Rasah), G. Manivannan (PKR-Kapar) and Steven Sim Chee Keong (DAP-Bukit Mertajam) want the police to investigate Abdul Gani after claims made by former Kuala Lumpur CID chief Datuk Mat Zain Ibrahim in a 31-page sworn statement.
"We demand that police conduct a full and independent investigation as the allegations raised by Mat Zain are serious and involve the country's interests," said Shamsul Iskandar after lodging the report at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters this evening.
In his statutory declaration, Mat Zain had claimed hundreds of millions of ringgit had changed hands and were deposited into a Hong Kong bank account over the Pulau Batu Puteh case, which the International Court of Justice ruled in favour of Singapore.
Mat Zain alleged that Abdul Gani had deliberately lost the case.
He had urged the authorities to investigate the reason how Malaysia lost its claim over Pulau Batu Puteh, saying it was a matter of sovereignty.
