Orders came from Putrajaya, says MACC intelligence man

By Debra Chong - The Malaysian Insider

SHAH ALAM, Oct 16 — The order to investigate Teoh Beng Hock’s state lawmaker boss for alleged corruption came from Putrajaya, a Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) intelligence officer told the coroner's court today, hinting at a far more complex turn of events in Pakatan Rakyat-ruled Selangor.

Teoh was the political secretary to first-term Selangor executive councillor Ean Yong Hian Wah. The MACC had called him in on July 15 as a witness to help investigate claims Ean Yong, who is also the DAP state assemblyman for Seri Kembangan, had misused his allowance meant to help residents in his constituency.

The 30-year-old Teoh was found mysteriously dead nine floors below outside the Selangor MACC office here the next day.

His family and employer claim foul play was involved.
