Ex-MACC man who probed Beng Hock now in EAIC?


The Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) appears to have absorbed a former Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) officer who interrogated custodial death victim Teoh Beng Hock in 2009.

zairil khir johari  on cancellation of book launch by lim guan eng 020313 01In a joint press release today, Bukit Bendera MP Zairil Khir Johari and Bukit Mertajam MP Steven Sim said that if this was indeed true, it will compromise the integrity of the EAIC.

Zairil (left) and Sim had posed this question following reports that one Mohd Nadzri Ibrahim was part of a six-member task force to probe two custodial cases.

According to the EAIC website, Mohd Nadzri is senior assistant director in the EAIC's investigation and prevention section. Zairil and Sim pointed out that incidentally, Mohd Nadzri is no longer listed in the MACC online directory.

During the royal commission of inquiry (RCI) to determine the nature of Teoh's death, the 24th witness had been Selangor MACC's Mohd Nadzri, who recorded the deceased's statements hours before he died.

However, the RCI did not implicate Mohd Nadzri of any wrongdoing and instead fingered three others - Hishamuddin Hashim, Mohd Anuar Ismail and Mohd Ashraf Mohd Yunus - although the trio werenever punished.

"In view of the fact that the EAIC is under the Prime Minister's Department, we urge Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak to clarify whether Mohd Nadzri of the EAIC is the same person who had been involved in Teoh's case.

"If yes, Mohd Nadzri should be sacked from the EAIC task force and barred from investigating any more cases involving deaths in custody," they added.

At the time of writing, EAIC has acknowledged receipt ofMalaysiakini's enquiry on the matter, but have said that they require time to respond.
