The police officer who is trying to fix me up is now in trouble himself. ASP Sydney Clyde Jeremiah has subpoenaed my lawyer, J. Chandra, to act as the prosecution’s witness, which means Chandra can no longer appear in court during my trial. At the last hearing, the prosecution, in fact, objected to Chandra’s presence in court and asked that he be removed. Well, my hunter is now the hunted, courtesy of divine intervention.

NO HOLDS BARRED

Police officer among five charged with bribery

A senior police officer was among five people who were separately charged at the Sessions Court yesterday with corruption.

In the first case, ASP Sydney Clyde Jeremiah was charged with soliciting RM2,000 from Mohd Khusaiful Che Rashid, 36, as an inducement to release Hoi Chee Kin, 27, who was arrested for offering sexual services.

Jeremiah, 47, was one of the senior investigating officers in the city’s serious crimes division.

He was alleged to have committed the offence at his office at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters at 3.30pm on Oct 26 last year.

Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission’s (MACC) deputy public prosecutor Iznina Hanim Hashim proposed RM10,000 bail in one surety.

Jeremiah’s counsel Datuk Salehuddin Saidin pleaded for the amount to be reduced to RM5,000 and said that Jeremiah was the sole breadwinner in his family.

“He has two young children aged nine and 11 years old,” he said, adding that Jeremiah, who was still with the force, was a senior investigating officer and had no reason to abscond.

Four others were charged at the same court.

• Sergeant Abdul Razak Mayuddin, 48, was charged with soliciting RM1,000 from Chua Seong Loon as an inducement not to take action against Chua, Chin Hoi Man and Chin Hoi Ching, who were suspected of causing grievous hurt.

The offence was allegedly committed at the Criminal Investigations Department at the Sentul district police headquarters, between 2.30am and 2.55am on April 2, 2006.

For Abdul Razak, Iznina proposed RM6,000 bail in one surety.

• Abd Rashid Yusuff, 50, was charged with receiving RM350 from M. Muthugumar as an inducement not to demolish the wall of Muthugumar’s squatter house.

Abd Rashid, who was then City Hall’s assistant enforcement officer, allegedly committed the offence at a restaurant in Kampung Pandan, at 3.52pm on Oct 6, 1999.

Iznina proposed RM5,000 bail in one surety.

• Jobless Rahman Ihwan and Zulkifli Sadri, both 43, were charged with accepting RM200each from NatraMohd Tahir for helping to settle her mother’s compound for hiring illegal workers.

Rahman allegedly committed the offence at a hotel lobby in Jalan Pahang at 8.30pm on Oct 6, 2006, while Zulkifli was said to have committed the offence at the same place at 12.25am the following day.

Iznina proposed RM5,000 bail in one surety for each accused.

In pleading for their bail amounts to be reduced, the four accused, who were unrepresented, said they had to support their family and had school going children.

All five pleaded not guilty to their respective charges.

Sessions judge Rosbiahanin Arifin granted RM5,000 bail in one surety each for Jeremiah, Rahman and Zulkifli, and RM3,000 bail in one surety each for Abd Rashid and Abdul Razak.

She fixed March 6 for mention of all five cases.

Let ASP Jeremiah understand that what goes round will come around. Serves that idiot right. It also shows how dirty the Police force is, start with the IGP, deputy IGP and the whole jinxed Police corp.

This is chicken shit. When is the MACC going to nab Najib and Rosmah for a whole host of corrupt practices ranging from submarine acquisition kickbacks to scandalous management and contracts for the Nazional Service camps.

It is becoming more and more hopeless. Even if Pakatan Rakyat takes over the federal government in the next general election, the jumping frogs can bring it down within months. As for the rulers as another force for check and balance, well, what is there to say ? Hmmmm..... (thinking very hard to plan for the future......)

will the divine intervention continue to work on Perak state ? Looks like over the years I have over-estimated the wisdom of a certain sultan after all.
