Mat Zain - "Musa had no concrete evidence against Anwar"...

Former inspector-general of police Musa Hassan's statements made in yesterday's interview with Malaysiakini on the Sodomy I case against former deputy prime minister Anwar Ibrahim are seen "as an afterthought".

On this issue, Musa should have stuck to his evidence given in the trial, his statement to the KL CID investigating team, his own suit against Anwar and the statement given by Mohd Rodwan Yusof, former Kuala Lumpur CID chief Mat Zain Ibrahim said.

Mat Zain, who was the investigating officer in Anwar Ibrahim's black eye case in 1998, said Anwar while in police custody gave his consent for his blood sample to be taken on Sept 28, 1998, for a HIV test by a Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) doctor. 

Mat Zain said the sample was taken and given according to procedures. However, the sample taken for HIV test was taken away, without the doctor's consent on Oct 15, 1998, for DNA tests as well.

"The doctor should have insisted that the blood sample taken for the HIV test is not suitable for the DNA test, since the procedure for DNA test samples must follow certain protocol," he said.

Now that Musa had admitted to having used the blood sample for DNA tests with samples taken from the mattress, "then it is as good as him (Musa) admitting that he did not have concrete evidence" when he briefed the then prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
 

 

"Otherwise, why would Musa want to steal the blood sample from HKL and do the DNA tests on the mattress if he had all the evidence when he briefed Dr Mahathir?" Mat Zain asked.

Mat Zain said it should be remembered that the DNA test was already done at that time and Anwar had already been charged and trial was about to begin in less than a month.

He also noted that the DNA evidence gathered from the mattress was eventually expunged when chemist Lim Kong Boon acknowledged that the evidence could be planted.

In the Malaysiakini interview yesterday, Musa admitted that he took blood samples to conduct the HIV test and it was also used for DNA testing.

This was because, the former IGP said, he had to conduct a full investigation as there were many allegations made in the book "50 reasons why Anwar cannot be PM".

Good drama script

Without mincing his words, Mat Zain also described Musa's warning to his (Musa's) younger brother Fuad not to interfere in the police investigations as "a good drama script"

"If Musa really would arrest his own brother, then he should have arrested present attorney-general Abdul Gani Patail and HKL doctor Dr Abdul Rahman Yusof for fabricating evidence on the black eye investigation."

The fabricated reports are easily accessible as they are in the public domain.

Mat Zain also said if Musa was honest to himself and the police, he should have supported calls for a tribunal to investigate the allegations made against him and Gani to clear the long-standing disputes.

"The guilty ones must be punished, no matter who they are. Musa knows the various PMs and the Yang di-Pertuan Agong personally. He should not be afraid if he is totally clear of any wrongdoing," the former KL CID chief challenged.

Absolving himself, Gani and Najib

After having read Musa's statement on the Altantuya murder case as well, Mat Zain said, it was now more clear that Musa's willingness to speak to Malaysiakini on various ‘subjects', and published in parts, was to clear himself, Gani and Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak through the media in view of the coming general election - and possibly revive his younger brother Fuad's political profile and ambition as well.

He said, Musa brought up Fuad's name "out of the blue", when speaking about his role in Sodomy I. Fuad was a former Hulu Kelang assemblyperson and in the 1990s was considered a rising star and possibly, a Selangor menteri besar in the making.

"However, Fuad's dream of becoming at least an state executive councillor was shattered when he lost to Azmin Ali in the 1999 general election, garnering just 8,039 votes against Azmin's 9,185. After that defeat Fuad never recovered politically.

"I can't say whether there is any correlation between Musa suddenly bringing up his brother's name at this point in time and the resurfacing of Azmin Ali's 17-year-old corruption case, which has been reopened by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission. But the facts are there and I leave it to the people to make their own assessment," Mat Zain said.

Musa's statement that the HKL doctor, Abdul Rahman, was appointed by former attorney-general, the late Mohtar Abdullah, was another distortion of facts, he added.
He said Abdul Rahman was appointed on Oct 26, 1998, by Gani, who was then a senior deputy public prosecutor in the AG's Chambers.

"This fact is clearly stated in Dr Abdul Rahman's first expert report prepared on Abdul Gani's instructions. The doctor's appointment was made despite my objections.

"I have discovered that Dr Abdul Rahman was under police investigation for ‘criminal intimidation', based on a report lodged against him by another doctor who prepared Anwar's official medical report."

"Mohtar then ‘reappointed' Dr Abdul Rahman on Dec 1, 1998, to cover up the first appointment that was made by Gani. Dr Abdul Rahman, then went on to prepare another two more expert reports which contradict each other, making three expert reports in all, including the one instructed by Gani, although the doctor appointed by the AG did not make any physical examination on Anwar," Mat Zain revealed.

Abdul Rahman, the former top cop said, went on to give his evidence in the Royal Commission of Inquiry, which contradicted not only his expert report but his statement to the police as well.

This, Mat Zain said, was a clear cut perjury but no action was taken against Abdul Rahman.

Musa, he added, also claimed the AG Chambers did not have any intention of fabricating evidence in the black-eye investigation and that it had the right to call its own experts.

"To this I must say that if Gani did not have any intention of fabricating evidence, then he would not have arm-twisted Dr Abdul Rahman into preparing those three expert reports. Gani knew Dr Abdul Rahman was under police investigations as I told him.

"Musa also cannot deny the fact that he and Gani were present at the 30th floor of the Bukit Aman police headquarters on the night of the black-eye incident and they would have known what exactly happened in the lock-up that night.

"They must realise that any attempt to change the true facts which they both knew as the truth is mere distortion of facts.

"Again, I would suggest that Musa insists that Najib seeks the Agong's consent to have a tribunal set to investigate this matter and see whether Gani and Musa himself can be cleared or otherwise," Mat Zain added.- malaysiakini

Mat Zain: Kenyataan Musa buktikan tiada bukti kukuh bagi mensabitkan Anwar...

Mantan Pengarah Jabatan Siasatan Jenayah (CID) Kuala Lumpur, Mat Zain Ibrahim membidas kenyataan mantan Ketua Polis Negara, Tan Sri Musa Hassan berkaitan kes 'Liwat I' yang dikaitkan dengan ketua pembangkang.

Mat Zaid menyifatkan perkara itu sebagai perkara tambahan yang baru sahaja difikirkan (afterthought).

Beliau yang juga pegawai penyiasat dalam kes mata lebam Anwar pada 1998 menegaskan, Musa sepatutnya merujuk beberapa kenyataan berkaitan.

Ia antaranya kenyataannya dalam perbicaraan itu, kenyataannya kepada ketua pasukan penyiasat CID Kuala Lumpur, dakwaan Musa sendiri terhadap Anwar dan kenyataan yang diberikan Mohd Rodwan Yusof.

Menurutnya, sampel darah untuk ujian HIV itu diambil doktor pakar Hospital Kuala Lumpur pada 28 September 1998 sewaktu Anwar ditahan polis dan beliau sendiri memberi kebenaran untuk itu.

Menurut Mat Zain, sampel itu diambil dan diberi berdasarkan prosedur. Namun, sampel yang sama diambil tanpa kebenaran doktor pada 15 Oktober 1998 untuk ujian DNA.

"Doktor menegaskan sampel darah untuk ujian HIV itu tidak sesuai untuk ujian DNA kerana prosedur untuk sampel DNA perlu mematuhi beberapa protokol.

"Apabila Musa mengaku menggunakan darah itu untuk ujian DNA ke atas tilam, ia secara tak langsung bermakna beliau mengakui tidak mempunyai bukti kukuh sewaktu beliau memberi penerangan kepada perdana menteri pada masa itu Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

"Jika tidak, kenapa Musa perlu curi sampel darah itu dari HKL dan melakukan ujian DNA ke atas tilam jika siasatannya lengkap sewaktu bertemu Mahathir," kata Mat Zain.- malaysiakini

 

SPRM Pula Diminta Kenakan Anwar...

Wah cepat dan pantas sekali SPRM bertindak ke atas pendedahan bloger yang kini berada di tanah asing Raja Petra Kamarudin yang mendakwa kononya beliau memiliki fail rahsia timbalan presiden PKR Mohamed Azmin Ali yang dikatakan melakukan rasuah.

Raja Petra(kiri) seorang bloger yang mempunyai banyak bapak tiri (god father) kini berada di luar negeri kerana mengelakkan untuk didakwa di mahkamah atas beberapa kes. Kata Raja Petra fail tentang rasuah Azmin itu diberikan oleh bekas pegawai SPRM kepadanya.

Bloger satu ini, sebelum ini banyak telah mendakwa memiliki rahsia peribadi para pemimpin negara ini yang mana kebenaran rahsia dan maklumat dimilikinya jauh meleset dan ia hanya sebuah ilusi beliau yang kini kesepian di luar negara saja. Mungkin orang masih ingat bagaimana dia membuat surat sumpah kononnya ada memiliki beberapa dokumen mengenai siasatan ke atas Altantuya Sharribuu yang mati dibunuh kemudian jasadnya diletup.

Ekoran pendedahan itu, Raja Petra yang kononnya mengaku mendapat maklumat dari seorang pegawai tinggi tentera menyebabkan pegawai yang tentera berkenaan yang masih bertugas dikenakan tindakan tatatertib.

Selain itu beliau mendakwa memiliki segulung dokumen lagi yang diterima dari berbagai pihak mengenai berbagai skandal bertaraf dunia. Cara Raja Petera mengestbelishkan dirinya seolah-olah beliau adalah bank rahsia orang politik di Malaysia ini.

Berbalik kepada sikap cergas SPRM untuk membuka siasatan berhubung apa didakwa bloger yang berkepala goling ini (botak) ia agak anih dan menghairankan sedikit. Kenapa SPRM begitu cepat membuat siasatan sebaik saja perkara itu didedahkan. Dalam hal ini kenyataan tindakan segera SPRM yang membuat laporan polis terhadap pendedahan Raja Petra itu membolehkan badan itu menyiasat sesuatu menakjubkan. Apakah bukan keutamaan untuk SPRM memanggil Raja Petra terlebih dulu untuk mengesahkan maklumat yang didakwa itu?

Menurut laporan Panel Operasi SPRM akan bermesyuarat esok untuk membincangkan dakwaan Raja Petra bahawa ketua Umum PKR Anwar Ibrahim mengarahkan siasatan kes rasuah terhadap Azmin di dihentikan. Nampaknya isu kini bukan tertumpu kepada Azmin tetapi meluas kepada Anwar Ibrahim pula.

Menurut pengarah siasatan SPRM Mustafar Ali bahawa panel itu membincang dakwaan Raja Petra kerana menurutnya jiwa benar siasatan itu akan dilakukan. Alasannya siasatan jenayah tidak ada tempoh masa walaupun kes itu berlalu? Cara SPRM menguar-uarkan apa yang masih kabur kepada umum seakan satu permainan politik untuk menimbulkan keraguan umum kepada orang ramai.

Saya tertarik dengan penjelasan SPRM itu sesuatu kes jenayah (rasuah) tidak ada tarikh lupus. Ini bermakna kalau selepas ini kerajaan UBN tumbang kerajaan baru boleh mengarahkan polis, SPRM dan peguam negara membuka semula segala macam kes yang dilipat di bawah karpet sebelum ini.

Kenyatan Mustafar itu seakan siasatan berkaitan apa didedahkan oleh Raja Petra itu bukan lagi menjurus kepada Azmin tetapi kepada Anwar Ibrahim. Apakah SPRM akan menyiasat Anwar atas salah guna kuasa serperti mana pernah didakwa semasa Anwar jadi TPM itu yang meminta pegawai polis supaya melakukan gertakan ke atas seorang betina yang telah cuba mengaibkan dan memfinah Anwar apabila Anwar menolak luapan nalurinya?

Tidak mustahil itu akan diberlaku. Mungkin sudah ada pakatan di dalam hal ini dengan Raja Petra dijadikan alat atau pun sumber untuk membolehkan SPRM menyiasat Anwar atau membuka segala macam kasus membabitkan Anwar dan para pemimpin PKR lain. Kita kena faham kedudukan UBN kini yang makin mendesak dan sudah berjalan atas bara api.

Logiknya sekira dakwaan Raja Petra itu benar pihak yang seharusnya perlu disiasat ialah Raja Petra sendiri dan orang yang memberi fail itu kepadanya. Sang pemberi fail itu adalah orang pertama yang pecah amanah dan menyalahgunaan kuasa. Tanpa menyiasat dan mengenakan tindakan ke atas kedua mereka adalah tidak adil dan wajar untuk SPRM menyiasat Anwar dan Azmin.

Nampaknya usaha untuk mengena dan memenjarakan Anwar tidak pernah berhenti dan akan dilakukan sehinggalah UBN dan Najib Razak merasakan parti itu akan menang dalam pilihan raya. Di sini saya ulangi sekali lagi apa yang pernah saya ramalkan; pilihan raya tidak akan diadakan selagi Anwar Ibrahim tidak ditolak masuk ke dalam penjara? Ramalan ini nampak makin menjadi realiti. - Mohd.Sayuti Omar, msomelayu.blogspot.
