Next change: Part III, IV of Lester's confession
Two more portions of Lester Melanyi's "video confession" will be published in the near future, according to Pertubuhan Minda dan Sosial Prihatin head Ramesh Rao Krishnan.
According to Bernama , Ramesh Rao said he wanted to release the video clips "slowly" and address any retorts by whistleblower website Sarawak Report .
"These videos will reveal Malaysians who had links with Lester, such as opposition figures and the person behind Sarawak Report which provided information," he said.
Thus far, it has been est ablished that Ramesh Rao had recorded a video confession from Lester, which has been used by BN strategic communications director Abdul Rahman Dahlan as proof that Sarawak Report had forged documents to disparage Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak.
Lester had claimed that he was once employed by Sarawak Report and that its editor Clare Rewcastle Brown had once admitted to "forging" documents.
Police investigation
However, Rewcastle had since shown her email communication with Lester to prove that she had been quoted out of context.
The second video released by Ramesh Rao had depicted Lester claiming that 90 percent of Sarawak Report's documents on state-owned firm 1MDB were forged by Malaysian opposition figures.
No evidence has been provided yet to back his claim.
According to Ramesh Rao, evidence of these claims have been given to the Petaling Jaya police on July 15.
He added that he got to know Lester two months ago and had met him in Kuala Lumpur and in Sarawak.
