It’s police intimidation, says Liew

GEORGE TOWN (Dec 28, 2009) : The Selangor police’s decision to investigate Selangor state exco Ean Yong Hian Wah after he had asked them to cease their probe on Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng for making allegedly seditious comments is a form of intimidation, says Bukit Bendera MP Liew Chin Tong.

Liew, in a statement, said: “Since when have the police gained such clout that its actions are beyond public scrutiny and criticism?

“It is the most regrettable that the police has decided on such a harsh and draconian course to quell views expressed in public sphere.”

By doing so, the police is clearly “intimidating” its critics, he said.

On Sunday, Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar said Ean Yong’s statement directing the police to cease their investigation of Lim seemed like an attempt to intimidate the police and as such, the Seri Kembangan state assemblyman would be hauled up for questioning.

Khalid had earlier said Lim would be questioned this week for allegedly making seditious comments after the DAP secretary-general told a Pakatan Rakyat convention on Dec 19 that Teoh Beng Hock had been “murdered”.

Teoh, 30, the political secretary to Ean Yong, was found dead on July 16 at the fifth floor corridor of Plaza Masalam in Shah Alam, which also houses the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) office. He was a witness into an MACC probe on alleged abuse of state funds.

An inquest into his death is currently ongoing.
