Police Have Completed 1MDB Probe, Says IGP Malaysiakini 20 September 2017 by N Faizal Ghazali

Police have completed 1MDB probe, says IGP Malaysiakini 20 September 2017 By N Faizal Ghazali The police have concluded their investigations into 1MDB and there are no new developments, pending any further instruction issued, inspector-general of police Mohamad Fuzi Harun said. Fuzi told reporters in Kelantan today that any such instruction, if issued, would come from the Parliament's Public Accounts Committee (PAC) or from the federal cabinet. "No, no. We have no need (to investigate further), as the investigation has been completed. "Unless we have further instructions from the PAC or cabinet on this matter," Fuzi said at a press conference after officiating PDRM's Innovation Day at Universiti Malaysia Kelantan in Kota Baru. "To my knowledge, this matter (the 1MDB investigation) has been completed and there is no new development that I need to inform the media and public," he said. In June, former IGP Khalid Abu Bakar said that the Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) directed the police to investigate the 1MDB issue further, based on several questions, which were not disclosed. The instruction at the time was based on investigation papers that Khalid said had been submitted, sometime earlier this year. The police formed an investigation team in April 2016 to scrutinise the PAC report on 1MDB, a day after the PAC tabled the report. The AGC and the police have been under increased pressure to wrap up investigations after the US Department of Justice, on June 15, filed the latest in its series of 1MDB- related civil forfeiture suits. Various opposition parties and civil society groups have criticised Malaysian authorities for supposed inaction, despite their counterparts in Singapore, Switzerland, the US and other countries cracking down on those implicated in the 1MDB scandal.
