MyWatch chairman is being investigated for a tweet that said the bullet recovered from his body was the type used by the police.
PETALING JAYA: The police are investigating MyWatch chairman R Sri Sanjeevan over a tweet on Sept 30 in which he said that the .38 bullet recovered from his abdomen was similar to that used by the police.
Sanjeevan said he received information from a police source but declined to name the officer for security reasons.
A team of four senior police officers from Bukit Aman and Ampang district police took 45 minutes to recorded the statement from Sanjeevan at the Tropicana police station.
Present at the the interrogation was PKR Legal Bureau head Latheefa Koya.
Police are also investigating the anti-crime activist for extortion after three reports were made against him.
In the first report on Aug 17 in Triang, Pahang, a shopowner said two Indians posing as Special Branch (SB) officers approached him to collect protection money.
Two more similar reports were made in Bahau, one in June by a cake shopowner and the other on Aug 26, by a massage parlour operator.
According to Latheefa, the police interrogators did not show the content and the names of the complainants.
Sanjeevan remained silent throughout the interrogation.
Latheefa said there was no direct link in all the three reports because Sanjeevan’s name was not mentioned by the complainants.
“Police are investigating only on suspicion and why are they doing this after his attempted assassination?,” she asked.
Latheefa said there were no arrest made on Sanjeevan’s hitmen, but the police were quick to investigate him on something baseless.
“Are they trying to frame him because he exposed some corrupted police officers from Malacca and Negeri Sembilan?” she asked.
The interrogators said Sanjeevan would be further questioned by investigating officers from Pahang and Negeri Sembilan as there could be an identification parade to further assist the case.
The MyWatch chairman calls this a further harassment by the police and trying to delay his case.
Sanjeevan said he wanted an answer from the police on his attempted assassination and not to throw baseless allegations on him.
The anti-crime chief’s father, P Ramakrishnan, said he was disappointed with the police for not making any arrest on his son’s attempted murder.
He also said he had not received a copy of the ballistic report on the bullet that was taken to Cheras Forensic Laboratory.
Ramakrishnan showed a SMS received from IGP Khalid Abu Bakar that the Bukit Aman police had taken over the investigation and would do the best to arrest the hitmen.
“But so far no one was arrested,” he said, hoping the police will carry out their duty in a professional manner.
Sanjeevan was shot in the abdomen on July 27 at his hometown, Bahau, Negeri Sembilan by two men on a motorcycle.
