The Attorney General’s Chambers has requested Inspector General of Police, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun to carry out further investigations into the death of Teoh Beng Hock

I would like to announce that the Attorney General’s Chambers has requested Inspector General of Police, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun to carry out further investigations into the death of Teoh Beng Hock as it is of the view that such investigations are necessary in light of the Court of Appeal’s finding that other unknown personalities, including MACC officers were involved in Teoh’s death.

This was after I had, through my firm Messrs Karpal Singh & Co, acting as solicitors for Teoh’s family, written to the said Attorney General’s Chambers letter dated 6.6.2018 pertaining to whether Teoh’s death would be investigated further.

I can confirm that the said Attorney General’s Chambers has written to the IGP letter dated 17.7.2018, a copy of which was extended to my firm, requesting for further investigations to be commenced into Teoh’s death.

I am of the view that the above is a positive development in the matter and hope that such investigations reveal those responsible for Teoh’s death especially since the Court of Appeal has made a finding that there were others involved in the same.

I will, no doubt, continue pressing the authorities for updates on the matter periodically as I am firmly of the view that justice must be done in Teoh’s case.
