Ah, I apologise for not doing my homework.
I was talking to Tricia Yeoh (whose moving personal account re: Teoh Beng Hock touched me personally as a former employee in the same industry they were both in) who pointed out a huge conjob which I now see is appearing throughout the blogosphere.
The Royal Commission announced is NOT to investigate Teoh’s death!!
It’s scope will be limited to the interrogation methods used by the MACC.
Teoh’s death will only be the subject of an inquest headed by a magistrate, which as Jeff pointed out, is but a low ranking officer of the world famous Malaysian Judiciary (incidentally still tainted despite the last Royal Commission).
So, this is the best “justice” that Najib has to offer to Teoh’s family, his fiancee, and his unborn child??
Even in the face of such public outrage, he will not even concede to such a simple request?
Why deny the call to have a Royal Commission to investigate Teoh’s death?
To show “loyalty” to your gloved (and bloodied) hands? As a reward to how the MACC bought you Perak? Protecting “Malay institutions?” Cannot give face to Pakatan?
The rakyat should DEMAND an explanation as to why Teoh’s death does not deserve more than an inquest by a discredited institution.
And come onlah, can a Royal Commission on “MACC interrogation tactics” come up with anything useful or pertinent?
It looks incredibly cosmetic, with a script full of completely inane and irrelevant findings all set out already.
The underhanded manner in which Najib and his unholy gang are trying to pull off this conjob of announcing a Royal Commission (which they hope no one will notice is the wrong one) is particularly despicable.
Call them on it! Let this insiduousness not go unpunished!
