    Subject: Lingam

    Media statement by Wee Choo Keong, Secretary-General of the Malaysian Democratic Party (MDP) on 22-11-2007 in Kuala Lumpur.

    LINGAM SAID HIS BROTHER IS INSANE.
    HE ALSO SAID THAT HE WAS CLEARED BY ACA.

    Yesterday, Lingam produced a medical report purportedly from Dr Davedas. Mr Thirunama has informed me that he had never received any medical report from Dr Davedas and he was extremely surprised that Lingam had a copy of such a report. If it was true that Lingam had a copy of such a medical report from Dr Davedas, actions will be taken against him for breach of confidentiality.

    Mr Thirunama had stated in his statutory declaration as follows:

    1. that at that material time he didn’t lodge any report to the ACA and he believes that the report may have been lodged by other parties, who were being sued by Lingam;

    2. that one week before 08-03-1998 he was told by Lingam that all the members of the family will be questioned by ACA on his corrupt practices with the judges, former inspector general of police and the former Attorney-General, the late Tan Sri Mohtar Abdullah;

    3. that he was specifically asked by Lingam to hide in India, which he refused, and Lingam asked him not to reveal anything to the ACA about him going to the judges house and etc;

    4. that after he gave his statement to the ACA for the first time on 08-03-1998, Lingam and his sister used threats and emotional pressures to force him to pretend to be a person of unsound mind;

    5. that he was also asked by Lingam through his sister to go to his wife company’s panel doctor, Dr David in PJ Old Town;

    6. that Dr David then referred him to Dr Davedas and Dr Davedas prescribed some medication for him;

    7. that he did not consume a single tablet because he was not mentally sick; and

    8. that these tablets have been deposited with a lawyer by Datuk Shafee Abdullah, who was then acting for Mr Raphel Pura, a journalist from Asian Wall Street Journal who was sued by Lingam, for safekeeping.

    LINGAM SAID HE WAS CLEARED BY ACA

    I challenge Lingam to produce evidence stating that he was cleared by ACA. The ACA had never made such a statement. In fact, the ACA deputy director-general Datuk Abu Kassim Mohamed told the reporter as follows:

    “Other allegations in his (Mr Thirunama) report were related to the case Lingam was investigated on in 1998 and we have forwarded (the investigation papers to the A-G Chambers for further decision.”

    From the above statement, the ACA never cleared Lingam and in fact the above statement implied that the ACA is still waiting for instructions/decisions from the Attorney-General Chambers.

    It must be noted that the late Tan Sri Mohtar Abdullah was the Attorney-General from 1994 to 2000. At that material time, Tan Sri Mohtar was also heavily implicated in Mr Thirunama’s police report and statement to the ACA in March 1998. Please refer to Mr Thirunama’s Kelana Jaya Report No: 002187 / 2007.

    Therefore, even if there was a decision made by Tan Sri Mohtar to clear Lingam such decision would be extremely questionable and contrary to the well established Rules of Natural Justice i.e. one must not be a judge in his own cause.

    In the spirit of transparency and good governance, I call upon the Attorney-General, Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail to act on the recommendations of the ACA, which are 9 years over due, on the allegations against Lingam in 1998.
