The family of the late Teoh Beng Hock condemned the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) for claiming in the coroner's court last week that the DAP political aide had received “kickbacks”.

Mohd Anuar, under questioning from the MACC lawyer, Datuk Abdul Razak Musa, told the coroner's court on Aug 26 that Teoh had personally received money from a private company totalling RM112.

The other lawyers, from the Teoh family lawyer Gobind Singh Deo to the lawyer from the Attorney-General's Chambers assisting the coroner, Tan Hock Chuan, objected strongly to Abdul Razak's line of questioning.

Teoh's boss, first-term Selangor DAP executive councillor Ean Yong Hian Wah who sat in when Mohd Anuar testified, has reassured Teoh's family that the claim is “totally baseless” and that he has all the documents to prove his innocence.

The RM112, Ean Yong told them, is a refund for an earlier payment for a banner.


But Lee Lan said: “The damage has been done.”

On behalf of her family, she demanded that the MACC show proof to back up its allegation immediately, or publicly apologise to the family for defaming her deceased brother.

“Proof is needed for truth and justice to prevail,” she said.

“To make a serious allegation against a person who cannot defend himself is malicious and is totally unacceptable,” she added.

The 28-year-old auditor from Alor Gajah repeated her plea for anyone with information on her brother's death to step forward and pass the details to Gobind.
