The Malaysian Insider

How I wish its 2013 now. Might as well vote out BN. Vote in PR to be federal government to form a proper RCI for Teoh Beng Hock's death (not MACC's improper procedures or violation of HR).

And at the same time open cases for Khir Toyo, PKFZ gang ... whoo hoooo ... so many more ...

What the rakyat want are:-
1) MACC interrogating procedure is dead wrong, no surveillance CCTV, acted like gangsters, threaten & harrass, racist comment, prolong duration into the wee hours, Teoh was just a mere witness but not a suspect. MACC is sure damn guilty with blatant abuses & what kind of punishment should be compounded on such a half-past-six govt institution?????????????

2) To find out the actual cause of Teoh's death! What the public want is "The Truth" nothing but the REAL Truth. Nothing short of that. Those MACC officers found guilty should be sent straight to the galore.
3) Besides Teoh's case, there are several other MACC abusive cases reported earlier & these accussed persons should be investigated as well to verify/confirm their allegations.

Such half-hearted Royal Commission wouldn't deceive the average Malaysian who are really doubtful on the competency, accountability & transparency of UMNO/BN govt.

In many countries, when such humiliation situation happen, the head automatically handed his resignation. Here is different. Either the being protected or seek protection.

Because of the grave nature of this case only a full Royal Commission of Inquiry to investigate into the causes of the death will do it justice.

If the police seriously want to know how Teoh fell to his death, they just have to ask the last person/s who was interrogating Teoh.

More wayang kulit means these slimeballs have something to hide!!!

Protectionism rules in Bolehland! Satu lagi Project Barisan Nasional.

Have you got anything to hide in Teoh's issue or are you under certain threat not to allow the Royal Commission to touch on the cause of death of Teoh. What the public want is the truth to the cause of death of Teoh.

MACC has failed badly. Reputation is down the ?????. A waste of public fund so far. Hope the government can disclose what is the cost to in setting up and to operate MACC and will do damage control and "justice" to the public fund. Lets benefit the rakyat through petrol subsidy and do away with toll. There goes Pak Lah good cause legacy which is now in the state of chaotic

I fully agree with Anwar Ibrahim on his commentary.

I am not a politician,
neither am i a member of any political party.

In my observation,
Anwar's statements carried weight.
He himself been a victim of brutality in the interrogation room.
His face was smashed so hard, his eye turned black and he turned unconscious.
He could have been beaten to death if not of some people saving him.

Teoh Beng Hock was unfortunate.
No one in MACC came to his rescue,
and he died a cruet death, needless anyhow you look.

MACC claimed the interrogation was more than 8 hours straight -
But Teoh was already there from 5pm and he was 'released' at 3.45am (3.45 was claimed by MACC) -
You don't need RCI to probe if this interrogation - the lenght of such questioning technique - to tell us that MACC had indeed crossed the line - the so called SOP.

RCI will only investigate interrogation methods - too narrow a scope, I feel - while the investigation should be more holistic - looking at all angles - and not segmented into 2 parts.

To have a magistrate, a junior officer and lacks the maturity and experience - would be falling short of public expectation. To get a judge to moderate the inquest - well, the judge is still part of the judiciary system - our judiciary system at this time is been questioned as independent and fair.

Meanwhile the public want to know the team that will form the Royal Commission of Inquiry and the name of the magistrate who will moderate the inquest.

I am surprised that the leading investigator is transferred to main office, HQ.
At this point, the identity of the leading investigator and his team - not revealed.
This is really disappointment and cover up on the part of the govt.

In other countries like Japan and Korea,
the name of the leading investigator would be revealed and his photo in the news.
There should be a chance for the media to interview him at this time - his thoughts on what took place on the 14th floor. The names of the questioning officers should also be released.

This is called transparency.
Accountability.

I don't know why the cover up at such early stage.
It could confirm the suspicious feelings of the public towards govt agencies..

Even for the two policemen charged with killing the Mongolian beauty -
Throughout the trial, not one person in the public - not in the media or newspapers - or journalists have a chance to shoot a photo of the faces - or drawing of the portraits in the court rooms -

This is where the public will speculate -
how to stop them and the speculation -
the easiest way is to release the facts and faces.

The rumours in the marketplace -
these two policemen will not be hanged -
other two persons would take the place -
and they would change their identity and have face change.

Stop the rumours -
show their faces.

Anwar's right. The govt is not listening to the people, they are listening to Pakatan Rakyat. 2 different things.

Well, proves me wrong that the murderers going to have a coroner inquest. What does that means?

It means that they already concluded that the case and ruled as "sudden death" and ruled out any
criminal elements. Bet my last sen that is the only conclusion of the "monkey" investigation, anyone have different opinion?

Justice will only be served when the homocidal regime get thrown out of power, PEROID!!!

Since everyone is asking for Royal Commission of Inquiry, now you have it. Someone in the Cabinet must be thinking all Rakyat Malaysia is stupid fool which will not understand the terms of reference.
At the end, question remain unchanged, what is the Rakyat think of police probe the case and what is in Rakyat mind when put police and MACC together.

I think the Govt is scared to let people know the truth. By having Royal Commission on MACC's investigation procedures only and an inquest on the death of Teoh, people will only know half the truth. We want the whole truth and nothing but the TRUTH! So Najib please stop wasting our time. Yes the truth is still out there.

By trying to come up with a RCI that has very limited terms of reference, the BN cannot fool the rakyat. Everyone know the truth is how RPK told it. The rakyat only wants to know the rest of the story: i.e. WHO ordered the MACC to target only Pakatan people and therefore resulted in the death of Teoh. The rakyat knows from the Lingam RCI that BN will not hesitate to cover-up on anything, and also to ensure that NO ACTION is taken against anyone (except the opposition).

Nothing's gonna change my mind about the MACC. Need a revamp from start to finish. Appoinment by independent body vetted by both BN and Pakatan. Report to Parliament. Prosecution decision by a panel of senior MACC officers. Counter vetted by the same body that appoint the officers.

How are we going to trust MACC when someone went into their office alive but come out a Dead Corpse.

MACC has must hold 100% responsiblity for TBH death.

Whether they push him down or commit-suicide is also MACC responsiblity because MACC interogate TBH unitl 3.30am is inhuman is a true facts.

As you can see, this is another attempt to cover up the case. It is no use. So long as the present regime remains in power, there will be all kinds of crimes that that "will not be solved". The only solution is to wait for GE13 to vote out this sickening regime.

My View's suggestion is perfectly right. There is no need to chase after the shadows everywhere. The investigation should start from the MACC officer who last interviewed Teoh and the officer who gave permission to Teoh to go back. Obviously, Teoh died between the time he last had contact with these 2 officers (or just the same officer) and the site where his dead body was found.

Another wayang Kulit by UMNO, UMNO is not honest in whatever they say, they have no intentions what
so ever in dealing with their Evil Actions. They are just buying time.

Harapkan pagar, pagar makan padi. Real creepy knowing law enforcer are turning into mafia.
We all are force to agree with royal commission, but why must it investigate the procedures only. It should cover the whole investigations.
Come on-lah, try to redeem back some dignity after an embarassment moment in the case of Lingam finally classified as NFA, which exactly the same results forecasted by rakyat. Why so predictable?

This is a con act!!! Najib just agreed to set up Royal Inquiry for MACC procedure only....not Royal Inquiry to investigate how Teoh Beng Hock died!!!

BN/ Najib are big time conmen!!! but please don't treat us Rakyat like stupid guy!!

MACC already having stage 4 cancer and now counting the days only. Royal Commission will give the same bs that we hear each time. I think waste of tax payers money to fund such a hopeless MACC. Can close it down and save some money.

Things will never change and this incident would not be the last. The only solution is to have an Independent MACC which is staffed with personals answerable only to Parliament or to the Agong and the Royal Council so that they can really investigate anybody without fear or favour. Hong Kong before ICAC was formed had one of the most corrupted civil service from the top to the bottom and now look at them. If Hong Kong can do it, I do not see why we can't.

Dear Najis, think of your 1MALAYSIA, a beautiful dream you created, all the effort and publicity you have done for the past 100 days. The so call acceptance of rakyat towards your leadership you claimed. What I can see now is that you are just a coward, don't even have the guts to investigate the MACC which is suppose to be under you. Do they have anything with them which you don't want to be disclose? At least this is what the rakyat feel at this moment. Why not be a smarter leader, give what the rakyats want as long as it is the best and within the law... just let the Royal Commission the rights to find out the truth regarding the death of Teoh. Why .....???

Forgot it la...

I want to migrate out from this dammed malaysia...

Only ONE THING in this world is fixed and will never change: and that is Barisan Nazi have been conmen, are still conmen and will remain conmen in every thought they think, and every deed they do. Their cunning approach to dealing with Teoh Beng Hock's death shows everyone that they are hopeless, and do not deserve anyone's vote.

Please do not hold your breath on this RC which is really going to be a scam like past RC. If Najib want to be successful, he needs to break this cycle of government deceit by making sure that this time around the RC is different and once it is completed, the public will have full faith in its report. The limits imposed on the RC now is not going to do that.

Like Ronald Reagan said, "there you go again!".

Its a bloody waste of public's money in establishing the RCI. By now all incriminating evidences are cleaned. What is there to investigate. What the police doing now is just showtime. Should give them an Oscar for their brilliant performance.

I had presumed that magistrates only attended to petty things such as traffic offences or chicken thieves !

Confirm that Najib actually knows the cause of death. That is why he is trying to cover it up by the RCI limited scope of investigation, thinking we are stupid.
