Lawyer’s presence now hurdle to MACC quizzing PI Bala

By G. Manimaran, The Malaysian Insider

KUALA LUMPUR, June 28 — The presence of P.Balasubramaniam’s lawyer in his highly anticipated questioning by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has turned into a stumbling block.

Bala’s lawyer Americk Sidhu said the MACC has objected to the presence of his lawyer when they interview the former policeman who claims of a conspiracy in the murder of Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu in 2007.

The interviews have been set for July 5 and 6 in London.

Yes, we are in the final stages of negotiation at the moment.

"All has been agreed accept the MACC will not allow our lawyer to be present when they are interviewing the subject,” Americk said in a text message to The Malaysian Insider.

“We do not agree to this so we should know the outcome by next week,” he added, saying the venue for the interview has been booked for July 5 and 6.

Americk said Bala was waiting for the MACC officers to turn up in London to conduct the interview which he himself requested early this year.

He added the MACC did not agree to its request for a video transcript of the questioning.

“They don’t agree, but if one of our lawyers is present in the interview, then that lawyer can record longhand everything that is said so that would solve the problem of no recording allowed,” Americk said.
