DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang has declared that Pakatan Rakyat will probe attorney-general Abdul Gani Patail and former inspector-general of police Musa Hassan for alleged criminal wrongdoing if it captures federal power in the next general election.

 This, he said, was because of Prime Minister Najib Razak's refusal to act on former Commercial Crimes Investigation Department (CCID) chief Ramli Yusuff's complaint that Gani had fixed him and his team of police officers after they arrested an underworld figure.


 "If there is no judicial tribunal, then we have to go back to the mandate of the people for a tribunal to find out whether we have criminals as the (former) head of police and attorney-general," Lim told a 5,000-strong crowd at a Pakatan Rakyat ceramah in the Kuala Selangor stadium last night.

 Lim said the allegation made by a former top police officer was unprecedented even in other countries and should have warranted an immediate investigation from the premier.


 Najib last Friday

 dismissed
 </a>
 
 calls for a tribunal, saying that it was merely a claim that was not substantiated.


 Following this, Ramli expressed
 
 <a href="http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/193042" target="_blank">
 his disappointment
 </a>
 
 that he and his officers, who he said had been wrongly charged but subsequently cleared by the courts, have been denied any avenue for justice.

 <a href="http://www.malaysiakini.com/news/191713" target="_blank">
 
 reported

 that in 2007, Ramli (

 ) - on the orders of then deputy internal security minister Johari Baharum - investigated Johor-based underworld figure Goh Cheng Poh aka Tengku Goh - and Ramli found evidence of indications that Musa had helped Goh in his gambling and money-laundering businesses.


 Gani was said to have then instructed the Anti-Corruption Agency (now the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission) to access highly-confidential files on the case and used that information to hunt down informants who assisted Ramli's team and coerced them into implicating the police investigators instead.


 Ramli and six of his police officers were later hauled to court on various charges but they were all later acquitted.


 Following Ramli's revelation, several police officers, both serving and retired, have come forward with offers to

 testify
 </a>
 
 if a tribunal is set up to investigate Gani and Musa.
