VOXPOP 'The police passed the report to the AG, the AG passed it back to the police. When the music stops, it will be ‘no further action' (NFA).'
AG returns NFC investigation papers to police
Dont Just Talk:
PM Najib Razak has announced that any decision to charge NFC (National Feedlot Corporation) directors for the RM250 million cow-condos scandal will have to come from the AG (attorney-general), who in turn must get the green light from Najib.
What a wonderful country to live in; and after all the ding-dong of investigation papers between the AG and PDRM (Royal Malaysian Police), NFC directors will be charged by AG as part of a ‘sandiwara'.
Novice prosecutors will be put in charge of the case and ultimately, the case will be thrown out of court. Case closed and another RM250 million of taxpayers' money go down the drain.
In the worst-case scenario, we will get an out-of-court settlement between the borrower and lender, just like the former MAS chief Tajudin Ramli's settlement with Pengurusan Danaharta Nasional Bhd.
It is no wonder that billions in illicit outflows have left our shores in the last decade.
Kgen : They are stalling for time as usual. Just from publicly available information alone, there is already more than enough material to slap a dozen charges on NFC directors. What more investigations do you need?
Hello: It looks like the buck is being passed around, just like the ‘passing the pillow' game. The police passed the report to the AG, the AG passed it back to the police.
By the time this passing game is done, it will be ‘no further action' (NFA) for NFC's CBT (criminal breach of trust).
Sarajun Hoda: The jigsaw puzzle is falling into place. The investigations will continue and be delayed due to the upcoming election, I suspect. The BN government is in a Catch-22 situation.
If they charge the NFC directors, they may lose the elections due to public distrust. If they do not charge them, they may also lose the elections as this is one of the most popular issues for the opposition.
Kakarook: In the case of former DAP aide Teoh Beng Hock, there was not even a culprit but he was interrogated until the wee hours of the morning, and was later found dead.
HangTuah: The AG has been put in a spot by the police, DAP MP Tony Pua and PKR communications director Rafizi Ramli, and he does not know what to do.
If he prefers to charge, all the sordid details will emerge to show a lack of accountability on the part of the government, including gross incompetency, blatant corruption and cronyism.
There's also the wrath of a woman scorned to face and possibly beans will be spilled. If no charges are preferred, this will embarrass the government, which will be hard pressed to explain to the rakyat, and this is a big no-no with elections just around the corner.
What can the AG do but send the papers back to the police to buy time until perhaps after the GE.
Lim Chong Leong: What is there to investigate? Just go to Tony Pua and he will show you how everything has gone into the hands of the thieves.
Kangaroo: How can the AG decide when he himself is the subject of so many allegations? He himself needs to be investigated first.
The police have already concluded a case of CBT, what else is there for AG to look for?
Mahfuz wants probe into ministry project for Hasan Ali
Multi Racial: Well if true, it means Hasan Ali can be bought. So much for his talk about fighting for religion.
Anyway it is wrong to use taxpayers' money to finance political activities of one party. I fully support the audit, and if found true, those involved should be charged for abusing taxpayers' money.
Dingy: MCA chief Chua Soi Lek, is this the Umno that you want the Chinese community to vote for in GE13? Chua has been telling the Chinese that a vote for DAP is a vote for PAS.
There is not much different between Umno and PAS. Both are parties for Malays and Muslims. But Umno is corrupt, while PAS members fear God. Given the choice between the two, the Chinese will choose PAS over Umno.
Vgeorgemy: Malaysia may be the first country to sponsor extremist activities out of taxpayers' hard-earned monies. Hello MCA, Gerakan and MIC, will you say anything? Scared or ashamed?
These non-Umno members in BN are incapable of protecting the rakyat. They are all talk, no action.
Muak: Taxpayers' money allocated to Hasan Ali to win the youth back to Umno/BN? How is this not shameful and why is it that the people were not consulted on this? RM30 million is a lot of taxpayers' money.
Gen2: The Quran talks about those who put on a holy face but who eventually will be shown to be hypocrites. How true. This looks like another Cowgate in the making.
Jedi_Who : This is where Ibrahim Ali and Hasan Ali make their money, by skimming money from government allocations. They are not fighting for religion or race, but their own pot of gold.
