A lawyer for whistleblower Albert Tei has written to Inspector-General of Police Khalid Ismail seeking clarification on the status of a police investigation into a report lodged more than five months ago against Arifin Arif.

According to the letter sighted by Malaysiakini, lawyer Mahajoth Singh said his client had filed the report against Arifin, the son-in-law of Sabah governor Musa Aman, on Feb 6, but has yet to be updated on the case’s progress.
