Person talking to lawyer in videoclip not known
KUALA KANGSAR: The senior judge, who was supposedly on the phone with a prominent lawyer in a videoclip purportedly brokering the appointment of judges, has denied he was the person in question.
“I was contacted by the judge who denied he was the person on the other side,” said Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz.
Mohamed Nazri said he agreed with the stand of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak that the authenticity of the videoclip be investigated.
“Its authenticity must be investigated as we only see one person talking but the person on the other side, we don’t know,” he added.

“It could just be a political stunt. If it was genuinely meant to rectify the situation, give (the videoclip) to the police to investigate,” he said.
Speaking to reporters after handing over RM100,000 worth of donations and foodstuff donated by Amanah Raya Berhad during buka puasa to the needy here on Saturday, Nazri said:
“This matter should not be blown out of proportion. An investigation can be carried out by handing over the videoclip, say, to the Anti-Corruption Agency or the police.
“What is the use of highlighting the matter in the newspapers when its authenticity has yet to be ascertained?” he asked.
