Businessperson Albert Tei has kept up pressure on the MACC to return a “CCTV recorder” allegedly taken during a Nov 28 raid at his home, during which he was arrested and later charged for corruption.
Tei’s call today follows the fourth round of police questioning over his claims that MACC officers during the raid had pointed a gun towards him and his family members.
“I was informed by the senior investigating officer in charge that Bukit Aman had submitted several new questions related to the investigation into the alleged incident.
“I wish to emphasise that the police have recorded my statement four times, including today. My wife, mother-in-law, and a foreign domestic helper - who were also threatened with a firearm by the MACC officers - had their statements recorded last week,” said Tei, who was earlier summoned to the Sepang district police station.
“Therefore, I would like to ask the police where the CCTV recording device is located, and when the video footage of the MACC officers’ raid on our home will be made public.
“I demand that the police immediately return the CCTV recorder and release the video footage of the raid so that my family and I may receive the justice we deserve,” said Tei.
Previously, Tei reiterated his call for authorities to release the CCTV recordings, after Selangor police chief Shazeli Kahar said police found no evidence that MACC officers pointed a gun at Tei and his wife, Lee Pei Rie, during the raid.
At the time, Shazeli cited preliminary findings after police investigators recorded statements from all MACC officers involved in the operation.
Police had also obtained CCTV footage from the residence, as well as recordings of telephone conversations, which have been submitted to the forensics unit for further examination and analysis, he added.
MACC chief commissioner Azam Baki has since denied that his officers had pointed a gun at Tei and his wife. - Mkini
