Why Investigate Rohana But Not Muhyiddin Shahrir Asks Macc
Umno veteran Shahrir Abdul Samad questioned the MACC today on why it chose not to investigate Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin over a bribery allegation.
Shahrir (above) compared it to when the MACC investigated former Astro Malaysia Holdings Bhd group CEO Rohana Rozhan after former Goldman Sachs’ Southeast Asia chief Tim Leissner said he bought her a house using 1MDB money.
“If a witness statement in a US court about Tim Leissner giving money to Rohana drove the MACC to investigate Rohana, why did the MACC not act as swiftly on evidence that was already known from its own investigation,” Shahrir asked in a statement posted on Facebook.
Leissner, testifying before a US federal court in February, said he bought the US$10 million (RM44 million) London mansion for his then-lover because she threatened to expose his role in the 1MDB scandal.
This allegation prompted MACC’s investigation of Rohana - who vowed to extend her full cooperation.
Yesterday, a witness in Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's corruption trial said Ultra Kirana Sdn Bhd (UKSB) gave RM1.3 million to Muhyiddin in 2018, when the latter became the home minister after Zahid.
David Tan Siong Sun, 47, who is the former administrative manager of UKSB, disclosed this in the Kuala Lumpur High Court when the company’s ledger was shown to him during the trial.
“What the prosecution witness (Tan) stated (about Muhyiddin) was not something that was unexpected. Everyone already knows.
“At the time, Pakatan Harapan representatives controlled both the MACC and the Attorney-General chambers - they knew the evidence would involve Muhyiddin Yassin and several other political leaders,” Shahrir pointed out.
Muhyiddin later denied receiving the RM1.3 million, claiming that at the time, he was on leave for several months after undergoing surgery for cancer. - Mkini
