Shuhaily disgusted by shocking findings in GISBH case
"The only thing I can say about the case is that I am disgusted with the findings," he said.
SHAH ALAM - Federal Police Criminal Investigation Department Director Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain expresses disgust over the findings in the case involving Global Ikhwan Service and Business Holdings (GISBH).
"I cannot say much (about the case). The only thing I can say about the case is that I am disgusted with the findings.
"That is all, thank you," he said.
He said this in a brief response to Malay daily Berita Harian when asked to comment about the case after a press conference by Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain on the development of the Op Global operation, yesterday.
Previously, it was reported that 13 children at shelter homes that were raided by the police in the operation were suspected to have been sodomised.
Razarudin said this was based on the medical screening carried out on the 13 victims, who were from shelter homes in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan.
He said the police had opened four investigation papers against four men for an offence under Section 14 of the Sexual Offences Against Children Act 2017.
The top cop said police were investigating to determine whether the children were separated from their parents voluntarily or forced by the company.
He said it was also found that the children at the shelter homes were the third and fourth generation who did not attend formal schooling and were only home-schooled, which is an offence.
Yesterday, it was reported that the police have frozen 96 bank accounts with over half a million ringgit linked to the GISBH.
Razarudin in a press conference said to date, over RM581,552.31 in funds have been frozen in those accounts under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.
On Sept 11, a total of 402 children were rescued in a raid by the police on 18 charity homes around Selangor and Negeri Sembilan.
The victims, comprising 201 boys and 201 girls aged between one and 17 years were suspected to be victims of neglect and abuse.
During the operation, a total of 171 individuals were arrested in Selangor and Negeri Sembilan and have been remanded for seven days starting Sept 12 to assist in the investigation.
Razarudin said the police were collaborating with various ministries and relevant agencies to expedite the investigation.
