Accusations and counter -accusations by two former high ranking cops have still not abated. This time around former KL CID chief Mat Zain Ibrahim is accusing former IGP Musa Hassan of being involved in a cover up.

Mat Zain said all Musa Hassan’s allegations against the current Inspector General of Police Ismail Omar and the police force was an attempt to divert from his own errors and misdeeds.

In an open letter to Ismail, Mat Zain claimed that Musa was trying to divert people’s attention from his own controversial admission of guilt made in an interview with Malaysiakini in May last year.

“Without realising, Musa admitted in the interview that he had fabricated DNA evidence against former deputy prime minister Anwar Ibrahim in the Sodomy 1 trial.

“In an afterthought, he is now attacking the incumbent IGP in order to divert public attention from his mistakes,” alleged Mat Zain.

In recent months, Musa had criticised Ismail for being a “weak” IGP and claimed that several top brass officers are working in cahoots with underworld figures.

He also accused Ismail of being behind the arrest of Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng in 2008 under the Internal Security Act (ISA).

In addition, Musa alleged Home Minister Hishammuddin Hussein of interfering in police affairs, and that he (Musa) was forced to retire after he had voiced his reservations on the matter.

Hishammuddin had since denied Musa’s accusations.
