Sex video probe: AG to get police findings soon

The police have completed the investigation and will hand over the investigation papers to the AG for further action.

KUALA LUMPUR: Police have completed its investigation into the sex video featuring a man resembling an opposition leader.

Deputy CID chief Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said police were investigating the case under the Penal Code for the distribution of obscene material.

Investigation papers would be submitted to the Attorney-General’s (AG) Chambers anytime now, he added.

“It’s up to the AG to take action. If we need to re-investigate anything, we will do so,” he told Bernama when contacted.

On whether police had received any feedback from the distributor of an Omega watch said to be recovered from the place where the alleged sex act took place, Acryl said police had no power to force the company to reveal the identity of the watch’s owner.

“Let’s just wait. We cannot force them to provide information about who is the owner of the watch,” he said.

“The identity of the watch’s owner is not an issue (in completing the investigation). What is important in our investigation is who is responsible for screening the video.”

Businessman Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, former Malacca chief minister Rahim Thamby Chik and ex-Perkasa treasurer Shuib Lazim, collectively known as the Datuk T trio, said they had handed over the watch, allegedly taken from the room where the sex act was recorded, to the police along with the sex video.

At a news conference previously, Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim, who was asked about his watch, said it was being kept by his wife Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail.

Anwar had lodged a police report denying that he was the man in the video.
