KUALA LUMPUR: Local experts have confirmed that the sex video clip implicating a top opposition leader has not been doctored, said Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Ismail Omar.
He, however, declined to reveal the identity of the person featured in the video. The experts, he said, had handed over the full report on the video but he did not elaborate. “The most important thing is that we have received the report and we know it is genuine,” he told a press conference here yesterday.
The investigation is in its final stage and police are expected to hand over the papers to the Attorney-General soon for further action. Ismail said police had recorded statements from all parties involved in the screening of the sex video to the media last week. “We called in everyone to have their statements recorded, including media representatives who watched the sex video,” he said.
However, Ismail declined to respond to further questions from reporters but said more details would be revealed when the time was right. More than 20 newsmen were called to view the much talked-about video that has intrigued the nation at Carcosa Seri Negara, on March 21. The video apparently featured the politician with a foreign woman, believed to be a prostitute.
The 22-minute sex video was exposed by the Datuk T trio businessman Datuk Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, Perkasa treasurer-general Datuk Shuaib Lazim and former Malacca chief minister Tan Sri Abdul Rahim Tamby Chik. The next day, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim lodged a police report, saying that he was not the man in the sex video. Three people were arrested to facilitate police investigations but Ismail refused to reveal their identities.
