Update: Malaysians Unplugged has a transcript of the report, I’ve reproduced it below
I think Rocky went to press first, I expect Malaysiakini won’t be far behind. I’m looking forward to reading that report.
Rocky:
Own brother lodges 2 police reports against VK Lingam. Electrician Thirunama Karasu a/l Kandar Velluppillai, 50, is the brother of V.K Lingam, the lawyer in the controversial video clip that Anwar Ibrahim showed the world in September.
In March, six months before the video, he had lodged two police reports with two police stations against his brother. The first report was lodged with the Kelana Jaya police station on 16 March 2007 and the second with the Brickfields police station three days later, on 19 March 2007.
Juicy details contained in the two reports include:
1) allegations of corruption involving Lingam and several judges, including former CJ Eusoff Chin, former AG Mohtar Abdullah, former IGP Rahim Noor, and judges Mohtar Sidin, Low Hop Bing, and K.L Rekraj.
2) a dinner hosted by Lingam at his home for some judges and their wives and children
3) gifts and cheques allegedly for some judges
4) the former IGP’s phone bills
5) claims of huge transfers of money to accounts in London following a tip-off of an ACA raid
6) alleged visits to the former Chief Justice’s home
Wee Choo Keong: “The allegations contained in the Kelana Jaya Police Report No: 002187/07 dated 19-03-2007 by Mr Karasu were extremely serious by any standard one would like to set. I am most surprised that almost 8 months have elapsed after the said police report has been lodged and there was no positive action taken ….”
He said he will be writing to the Police to ask about the status of investigation, if any, into the reports. He will also submit copies of the reports to the Bar Council and the Action Chief of Justice.
Over 30 journalists and bloggers covered the media conference.
Coming up … the police reports, in full.

goodness gracious!!!!
what i see now are names of reputable standing, coming out from someone who was forced to admit and plead insanity by people whom exercised the law inside out.
shame again.
there we go again.
names……names of people whom were highly respected.
i wonder when will god come down with a large ball of fire.
what a shame to see 3 professionals aid and abet corruption. Will the bar council investigate the allegations or let it be by virtue of their prominent standing. After all the Malaysian Bar strongly deplores and condemns……….any member who indulges in any conduct that may adversely affect the independence, integrity and credibility of the judiciary or administration of justice.
sham, good morning.
The question that i would like to pose now is what is the term of reference ‘administration of justice’ means to you?
I also wonder how many times have judges like our former ‘star’ chief justice and his blinking cohorts have mention ‘fair administration of justice’ but at the backdoor, they vehemently jump across the barracks of the supreme constitution and furnish the rest with marred and scandalous myopic obfuscated treason against the law and parliament, albeit they are the key players and holders upholding the constitution?
i wonder this far……..
