death at MACC headquarters

By Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah,

With all Malaysians I am shocked and deeply dismayed at the death of Teoh Beng Huat, political secretary to a member of the Selangor state executive councillor, at the headquarters of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission in Shah Alam.

The strange circumstances of Mr Teoh’s death put the credibility of the government and our investigative and law enforcement agencies under a microscope. The public will expect nothing less than a full investigation into how something like this could have happened.

I would like to extend my heartfelt condolences to the late Mr Teoh’s family and to his betrothed.

Meanwhile, we await more information from the ongoing police investigation.
