The joke that is 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) just does
not stop. Former Umno branch leader Datuk Seri Khairuddin Abu Hassan and his
lawyer Matthias Chang were charged today with (get this) attempting to sabotage
the Malaysian economy and the country's financial and banking system.
How did they attempt to do this? Well according to the
Malaysian prosecution, led by deputy public prosecutors Masri Mohd Daud and
Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar, the duo did so by attempting to tell the truth! The duo
are accused of committing the offence in France, United Kingdom, Switzerland,
Hong Kong and Singapore, between June 28 and August 26 this year when Datuk Khairuddin
made several police reports in these countries.
So in short, the duo are detained for…making police reports! The
Malaysian Central Bank, Bank Negara, reported that 1MDB had secured three of
its permits to transfer US$ 1.83 billion out of Malaysia, based on inaccurate
or incomplete disclosure of information which breached domestic regulations,
and the Malaysian prosecution decided not to take any legal action even though
it's clear that 1MDB had flouted the Malaysian financial and banking
regulations.
Then they turn around and charged 2 guys for making police
reports? It is almost as if they don’t want anyone to report on 1MDB, doesn’t
it?
