KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 23 – A minister is expected to be among a number of individuals to be hauled up by police for questioning, in connection with the leaked Cabinet papers on the Port Klang Free Zone (PKFZ) case, said Federal Police Chief Tan Sri Musa Hassan.
However, Musa did not reveal the name of the minister or the individuals who will be hauled up to facilitate investigations as to how the cabinet papers, classified as Official Secrets Act (OSA) documents found its way to a website.
“Police will call those believed to be involved, including a minister,” he told reporters after visiting the Ampang Jaya police headquarters here today.
The Cabinet Paper posted on a website regarding the RM12.5 billion PKFZ project, had incurred the wrath of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak who denounced the act, because such documents were covered by the OSA.
The 18-page “Cabinet Paper” is purportedly a memorandum by the Finance Ministry in June 2007, to seek the cabinet’s approval to retrospectively approve a RM4.6 billion soft loan to fund the PKFZ project.
Musa added that he did not want to comment further on the issue as investigations were in progress. – Bernama
