After being questioned for close to eight hours yesterday, Muhammad Yusoff Rawther is now back at the federal police headquarters in Kuala Lumpur.
He was spotted entering Bukit Aman at about noon. His lawyer Haniff Khatri Abdulla was not present.
When contacted, Bukit Aman CID D5 (Prosecution and Legal Division) principal assistant director Mior Faridalathrash Wahid confirmed that Yusoff and another witness were summoned.
"We summoned two people today (including Yusoff). He came again as we have not finished recording his statement," he told Malaysiakini.
However, Mior declined to divulge the identity of the second witness.
The duo spent close to three hours before leaving Bukit Aman at around 3.30pm.
Reporters who had waited for Yusoff failed to interview him after he dodged the media by leaving through another exit.
He was spotted leaving the Bukit Aman security checkpoint before turning back, headed towards the back entrance/exit.
Haniff, in a statement, confirmed that Yusoff had given his statement to the police.
"His statement today was taken from 12.30pm and ended at 3pm. Yusoff left Bukit Aman around three-ish.
"Again, like yesterday, Yusoff cooperated with the police fully and if required will give any further statements from time to time as requested by the police to ensure a complete and thorough investigation is done on his report," said Haniff.
Yesterday, Yusoff, who accused PKR president Anwar Ibrahim of sexual misconduct against him, left Bukit Aman at 9pm.
Police recorded his statement following a report he filed against the Port Dickson MP on Saturday, several days after revealing he had made a statutory declaration detailing the alleged incident.
The former research officer for Anwar alleged that the incident took place on the fourth day of the Port Dickson by-election campaign in October last year.
Anwar has denied the allegation and instructed his lawyers to issue a notice of demand to Yusoff to retract his allegation, failing which, he would sue the latter.
