I am asked why I refused to comment on the death of Teoh Beng Hock at the MACC Selangor.
I am asked why I refused to participate in guessing the cause of the death of Selangor EXCO Ean Yong Hian Wah‘s political secretary.
I am also asked why I didn’t turned up at the Kelana Jaya Stadium rally organised by Pakatan Rakyat.
Here’s my reply, friends.
1. I do not know the irrefutable facts beyond that a young man was found dead.
2. It is for the coronor’s court to determine whether it was a homicide, accident or suicide. I do not have knowledge nor expertise to arrive at the irrefutable facts.
3. I do not know if my presence would be used as a political tool. I do not want to listen to hearsays.
What I am doing in my silence is to allow Teoh’s loved ones some dignity, space and privacy in their grieve.
I will not parrot calls to serve political expediency of any particular party.
I just want to respect the family’s right to grieve in privacy.
