Inspector-General of Police Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said it involved four investigation papers (IPs) regarding the former AG’s memoir, My Story: Justice in the Wilderness, and one IP on Thomas’ statement at a forum on Sept 17.
“I was informed that we have recorded statements from Tan Sri Tommy Thomas and Dr Michael Jeyakumar Devaraj (Parti Sosialis Malaysia chairman). There are some things that need to be done following instructions by the AGC.
“So we may need a little more time, and after that, we will submit them back to the AGC to decide and examine the IPs,” he told reporters after the closing ceremony of the General Operations Force (GOF) Central Brigade’s Tiger Platoon Unit basic training at GOF’s 6th Batallion Camp near here today.
Acryl Sani said Thomas’ statements were recorded at Bukit Aman on Oct 27 and that of Jeyakumar on Oct 22. Their statements would be taken into account and included with the investigation findings to be updated.
“We (the police) will do everything necessary. We recorded statements and will take into account everything related to the allegations before handing them over to the AGC,” said Acryl Sani.
He said this when asked about the latest developments in the investigation involving the former AG.
On Oct 28, the AGC was reported to have returned the IPs to the police last Tuesday to be completed.
Thomas and Jeyakumar were also reportedly called by the police to have their statements recorded regarding allegations that Thomas had made racially charged statements at a forum last month.
