Lodge report against MACC officer who threatened you, Kula tells businessman
Deputy law and institutional reform minister M Kulasegaran speaking in Parliament during the winding-up of the Whistleblower Protection (Amendment) Bill 2025. (Bernama pic) KUALA LUMPUR : Deputy law and institutional reform minister M Kulasegaran has urged businessman Albert Tei to lodge a police report and name the anti-graft agency officer who allegedly threatened him not to go public with information about the Sabah mining scandal. 'This issue has also been raised by several MPs. It is a very serious allegation and one that cannot be accepted under any circumstances,' he said during his winding-up speech for the Whistleblower Protection (Amendment) Bill 2025 in the Dewan Rakyat today. 'I would like to advise the individual named Albert Tei to immediately file a report regarding this issue with the police and the MACC complaints committee under Section 15 of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission Act 2009 (Act 694), by naming the MACC officer involved in the allegation.' Kulasegaran said that the government will not compromise on issues involving threats or intimidation, and stern action will be taken if the allegations are found to be true. 'Any individual who comes forward with information about misconduct must not be blocked or threatened by any party, especially by authorities who are supposed to protect whistleblowers under Act 711,' he said. Tei is currently standing trial on two charges of giving a total of RM350,000 in bribes related to mineral prospecting licence applications in Sabah to two assemblymen. Earlier today, lawyer Mahajoth Singh was reported as saying that Tei had approached MACC but was warned against coming forward before he exposed the Sabah mining scandal to Malaysiakini. Malaysiakini reported Mahajoth as saying that his client had first approached MACC at the end of October 2024, but was told by the anti-graft agency that he 'would be in trouble' if he came forward. Tei was also not offered any protection, the lawyer claimed. Mahajoth said this in response to law and institutional reform minister Azalina Othman Said, who said whistleblowers who approached the media before enforcement agencies were not entitled to protection under the Whistleblower Protection Act 2010. He said Tei decided to go public after being dismissed by the MACC and receiving death threats. The Sabah mining scandal surfaced last year following the leak of several videos purportedly showing discussions involving bribery and misconduct related to mineral exploration projects in the state. Tei and two other Sabah assemblymen have since claimed trial to charges of giving and receiving a total of RM350,000 in bribes related to mineral prospecting licence applications in the state.

Boy, 7, dies after nearly drowning in Melaka apartment pool
The boy from Masai, Johor, had been hospitalised after almost drowning while swimming in the apartment's pool on Sunday. (Envanto Elements pic) MELAKA : The seven-year-old boy who was hospitalised at Melaka Hospital after nearly drowning in a swimming pool at an apartment in Taman Kota Laksamana died this morning. State health, human resources and unity committee chairman Ngwe Hee Sem said the student from SK Rinting 3, Johor, was confirmed dead by the hospital director at about 11am. 'The cause of death was loss of brain function. The victim had been on a ventilator, and it was supposed to be removed today to see if he could breathe on his own, but his heart stopped before that,' he told reporters outside the Melaka state legislative assembly in Seri Negeri here. Ngwe said the child's remains were claimed by his next of kin at 12.05pm today for burial in Johor. It was earlier reported that the boy, who is from Masai, Johor, had nearly drowned while swimming in the apartment's pool at about 9.30am on Sunday. Preliminary police investigations revealed that the boy had gone to the swimming pool with his family, who only realised he was missing after noticing he was no longer in the water. They then searched the area around the swimming pool and discovered that several members of the public had already pulled him out of the water. He was rushed to the hospital, where he was admitted to the paediatric intensive care unit of the hospital.
