Beng Hock not suicidal

Share


Teoh Beng Hock was in the lowest risk group for suicide when he entered the custody of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), a forensic psychiatrist said in his report to a royal panel investigating the DAP political aide’s death today.

Dr Paul Mullen also said in his report to the royal commission of inquiry (RCI) investigating Teoh’s death that there was no reason for Teoh to conclude that he had shamed himself or betrayed his colleagues when he was questioned by the MACC.

“In brief, it is my opinion that Teoh Beng Hock was firmly in the lowest risk group for suicide when he was taken into MACC custody,” said Dr Mullen in his report, which was provided to the press today.

“His statement (to the MACC)... does not seem to clearly implicate him, or anyone else, in offences... this is not a context which, in my experience, leads to suicide in custody... there is nothing of which I have been made aware to explain panic and distress sufficient to drive him to conclude his honour had been irreparably tarnished,” added the Australian doctor.

Dr Mullen’s report came as the RCI concluded hearing testimony from 70 witnesses today in its bid to unravel the mysterious circumstances behind Teoh’s death.

Dr Mullen was not called to give oral testimony at the inquiry.

Teoh was found dead on July 16, 2009 on the fifth-floor corridor of Plaza Masalam in Shah Alam after he was questioned overnight by MACC officers at their then-Selangor headquarters on the 14th floor.

Teoh, 30, had been the political secretary to Selangor executive councillor Ean Yong Hian Wah, who is also the Seri Kembangan assemblyman from the DAP.

The graftbusters were investigating a claim that his boss was abusing state funds.

So the truth had finally prevailed. There was no need for TBH to commit suicide as suggested by certain irresponsible quarters. For the sake of money, certain quarters are prepared to stoop so very low to allege and insinuate TBH had committed suicide.
The only conclusion for his death was some one in MACC must be held responsible. This we leave it to the Honorable RCI to unravel the truth .

Thereafter, another RCI should be formed to investigate the death of the Asst Director of Customs and get rid of the rascals in MACC. Only then can the country regain the people's trust.
