PUTRAJAYA, June 16 — The RM12 million raised to ransom four Sarawakian hostages was paid to Filipino welfare groups and not the militants who abducted them, said Zahid Hamidi today.

Ahmad Zahid said the government does not recognise kidnap-for-ransom activities and would not use funds for such purposes.

“The government had decided that no ransom would be paid, and the police adhered to that,” he told reporters 

“The RM12 million given to the PDRM Special Branch was collected from the public as well as the (the family’s) selling of assets, and I can confirm that the money was channelled not as ransom money, but to certain bodies in the Philippines,” he added.

He said he could not reveal the Filipino agencies that received the money as this was a police matter, but said he will direct the Royal Malaysia Police to issue a statement to inform the public about the move.

The IGP is reported saying the following :

IGP: Families know where RM12mil went, police not involved in any payment

PUTRAJAYA: Any payment to secure the release of the four Sarawakian sailors were made by their families without the involvement of the police, said IGP 

He said police were not involved in paying for the hostages to be freed.

Khalid also denied claims that the Special Branch had received the RM12mil raised by the families.  
“I must reiterate again that the government nor the police had paid any money to the kidnappers. If there were matters involving money or payment, it was something that was done by the families themselves,” he told a press conference here 

Asked if he knew where the RM12mil was channelled to, Khalid said: “I don’t know. We have nothing to do with the money and where or to whom it was channelled.

“I think the families know where the money went and who received it,” he added.  
On the families' claims that the money was given to the Special Branch in Sandakan, Khalid said there were “third parties” involved with the families.

“Everyone will use the name of the police and Special Branch but like I said, we don’t cooperate with anyone in paying ransom to the kidnappers,” he said.

The families of the four Sarawakians, who were held hostage by Abu Sayyaf gunmen, had sought donations to secure their freedom.

After raising RM12mil, they claimed to have handed the money to the Special Branch on May 24.
