The former home minister says there was no instruction from the BN government to carry out the abductions.
KUALA LUMPUR: Former deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi has distanced himself from the mysterious disappearance of Perlis activist Amri Che Mat and Pastor Raymond Koh, following findings by the Malaysian Human Rights Commission today that the duo had been abducted by the police’s Special Branch.
“There was no such directive given by me or the ministry’s secretary-general,” he told reporters at the Parliament lobby.Zahid said he respected the Suhakam findings, but also called for the police force to be respected. Amri, who co-founded an NGO called Perlis Hope, has been missing since Nov 24, 2016. His wife said that five vehicles had blocked his car before he was whisked away, some 500 metres from their home in Bukit Chabang, Perlis.
