BAD NEWS FOR NAJIB, GOOD NEWS FOR MALAYSIA: COPS SET MARCH DEADLINE TO WRAP UP 1MDB PROBE

THE police expect investigation into the 1MDB case to be completed by March this year, said Inspector-General of Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun.

He said the investigation is still ongoing and involves several individuals both within and outside the country.

“If I am not mistaken, it will be in March (completion of investigation). We are speeding up the investigation, the investigation is ongoing… we too want to complete the investigation as soon as possible.

“Our investigation is comprehensive… this is (an) ongoing thing… this is an internal matter which is proceeding actively,” he told reporters after launching an anti-crime patrolling programme at the Berjaya Times Square in Kuala Lumpur today.

He also denied that the police are deliberately delaying investigation on the 1MDB case.

Commenting on the actual number of individuals who have been and will be called up to assist in the investigation on the 1MDB case, Fuzi did not want to give too many details.

“I don’t have to give details on how many people would be called up, because our investigation has yet to be completed for submission to the Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP),” he said.

Meanwhile, commenting on the anti-crime patrolling programme, he said it will involve police trainees from the Police Training Centre to assist the Kuala Lumpur Contingent and Selangor Contingent.
