FMT - Another police probe on Anwar

PETALING JAYA: Police have opened a new criminal investigation against Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim in relation to his alleged involvement in the recently surfaced sex-video.

PKR political bureau member R Sivarasa said Anwar received a call from an ASP Teh Boon Ang a few days ago requesting him to give a statement next Wednesday at 3pm at the
Kepong police station.

“He (Teh) said Anwar is being investigated under Section 182 of the Penal Code (which reads: False information, with intent to cause a public servant to use his lawful power to the injury of another person).

“The report on Anwar was lodged by DSP S Shanmuga Moorthy, the officer who recorded Anwar’s statement in relation to the sex video in April,” Sivarasa told a press conference here.

If found guilty under Section 182, the punishment is a jail sentence of six months or fine of RM2,000.

Sivarasa said the report was lodged against Anwar two months ago on Sept 8 but the police were only acting on it now.
