KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): An official of the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) prosecuted for corruption presented a police report alleging that an official of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) was trained for the corruption trial last month.
The police report dated December 16 spotted by Bernama was submitted by MCMC Deputy Director (Post and E-commerce), Mohd Iskandar King, 43, who was charged with three counts of bribery worth RM87,000 on December 19 2019 regarding approval of the Universal Service Provision (USP) project.
He pleaded not guilty in the Court of Sessions here on December 19, 2019.
In the police report, Mohd Iskandar claimed that during the case proceedings on December 16, the MACC officer who acted as a prosecution witness testified under oath that his colleague, who was also a prosecution witness, had trained him to testify.
“The officer’s confession has already been recorded on video and audio by the CCTV of the Kuala Lumpur Criminal Sessions Court,” the report read.
In the report, Mohd Iskandar said that the basis for his complaint was that such action could affect his judgment.
Sentul District Police Chief, ACP, Beh Eng Lai, in a short WhatsApp message to Bernama, confirmed that the police had received a report on the matter.
Iskandar when contacted by Bernama also confirmed that he had submitted the report, but did not want to elaborate.
Meanwhile, Iskandar’s lawyer, Sivahnanthan Ragava, said the matter would be left to the police. – Bernama
