Puchong MP Gobind Singh Deo said IGP Khalid Abu
Bakar has no business warning or threatening with contempt those wanting
answers on the motive for Altantuya Shaariibuu's murder.
“Many have questioned. The public have questioned. Journalists have questioned. Lawyers have questioned. (DAP parliamentary leader) Lim Kit Siang has questioned. And I have questioned. Is he warning all of us?” he asked.
“For if he is, let me tell him, don't play the fool with me. Don't warn or threaten us. This is to my mind, a matter of public interest. People have a right to question. Khalid must learn to respect that,” Gobind asserted.
“Khalid can rest assured, I will continue to question. And he as IGP, must answer,” emphasised Gobind (right). He added that as a federal lawmaker, this is his duty.
Yesterday, it was reported that the IGP warned the public from continuing to raise the issue of motive over Altantuya's murder as they could be held in contempt of court.
Khalid's comments follows political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda giving an interview to The Malaysian Insider last week where he said this was just an ordinary murder case involving rogue cops and that Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak had nothing to do with it.
This led Khalid to respond on the “rogue cops” remark and this in turn led to several politicians including Lim, to question the motive once again.
Gobind today further challenged Khalid to repeat whether police did probe for the motive into the killing of the Mongolian.
“If not, why not? If yes, do the police know who directed her killing and why?” he asked.
“If the IGP cannot take the pressure of questions any longer, and if he thinks he can get me for asking, for carrying out my duties as MP, l dare him to come. I will take him on,” the Puchong MP challenged further.
