Inspector-General of Police Razarudin Husain said the investigation into the case will be conducted from various aspects, including whether an election offence was committed.
“We will leave the decision on whether to proceed with charges or not to the Attorney-General’s Chambers,” he told a press conference after witnessing a duty-handover ceremony of the Crime Investigation Department director post in Kuala Lumpur today.
According to Razarudin, the case will be investigated under Section 5(1) and Section 26(1)(g) of the Election Offences Act.
On Aug 12, Sanusi was reported as saying that he had no intention to show his marked ballot paper to the media before placing it into the ballot box at the state polls.

Instead, he claimed that the ballot paper was accidentally exposed while he was entertaining requests from the media for him to pose for pictures.

It wasn’t me who went against the law. They made me do it against my will…”. Try this. Then mungkin tak payah sembunyi kat hotel, pakai baju oren, pakai gari, blok hand fon call masuk, tak payah di berkas… cepat, buat presser, ‘Nusi
