I was just doing my job, 1MDB investigator says

SHAH ALAM – An officer involved in investigating the SRC International Sdn Bhd and a portion of 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) case, Tuan Yusran Yahya said that he was only doing his job which was entrusted to him.

The banking forensic expert told Sinar Premium that even though he faced multiple challenges, the trust that was given must be done as well as possible.

“I have nothing but to help the investigation team, we just have to carry out the task until it’s completed.

“We faced many challenges but our intention was to investigate with no other purpose so we just have to go through it,” he said.

Yusran added during that time, he was focused to carry out the task.

“I am more focused on the work that I consider a challenge, I would finish my task that was given,” he said.

Meanwhile, Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) Deputy Public Prosecutor Ahmad Sazilee Abdul Khairi and MACC Investigation Chief (Special Operations Division) Tuan Roslan Tuan Mat when contacted said they were not able to share any stories at the time since they were still attached to the commission.

“I have nothing to share at the time,” they said.

At the same time, a few individuals were sentenced because they were said to be involved with the high-profile investigation including Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail.

Gani was dismissed from the Attorney General’s post in 2015.

Tan Sri Abu Kassim Mohamed also ended his service as MACC Chief Commissioner in 2016 before reportedly serving as Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Integrity Consultant Expert at the Faculty of Law.

He was later appointed as National Governance, Integrity and Anti-Corruption Centre (GIACC) Director General in 2018.
