LAPORAN POLIS DATO' SERI ANWAR IBRAHIM TERHADAP RASUAH TUN DAIM ZAINUDDIN PADA 30 JUL 99

\LAPORAN POLIS TUN HS LEE 20455/99

Pada 14 April 1999 , tatkala memberikan kenyataan di mahkamah , saya telah merujuk kepada beberapa perlakuan rasuah besar oleh pemimpin-pemimpin negara. Saya juga telah merujuk kepada surat-surat dari tiga tokoh korporat ditujukan kepada Tun Daim Zainuddin , ketika itu Menteri Kewangan, yang membuktikan dengan jelas bahawa beliau menerima wang tunai dan saham berjumlah ratusan juta ringgit. Perdana Menteri Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir Mohammad bukan sekadar menghalang tindakan, bahkan terus melindungi rasuah besar yang dilakukan oleh Tun Daim sejak beliau menjadi Menteri Kewangan buat pertama kalinya dahulu.Malahan, sehingga kini, saya di fahamkan tidak ada siasatan oleh pihak polis atau Badan Pencegah Rasuah dilakukan. Dengan ini, saya sertakan dokumen sah bagi membuktikan rasuah, iaitu tiga pucuk surat yang masing-masing di tulis oleh Tan Sri Halim Saad, Tan Sri Tajuddin Ramli dan Tan Sri Wan Azmi Hamzah. Tan Sri Halim, dalam surat bertarikh 30 April 1990, menyatakan beliau memegang sebagai pemegang amanah sebanyak 52,208,500 saham Faber Merlin Bhd (saham 1.00) dan 130,000,000 saham Renong Berhad (50 sen) bagi pihak Tun Daim. Beliau mengesahkan bahawa nilai saham itu di pegang menurut arahan Tun Daim atau penama beliau. Tan Sri Tajuddin pula, dalam surat kepada Tun Daim bertarikh 24 Mei 1990 mengesahkan bahawa beliau memegang secara amanah bagi pihak Tun Daim wang sejumlah RM 70 juta. Tan Sri Wan Azmi pula, dalam surat kepada Tun Daim bertarikh 30 April 1990 mengaku memegang bagi pihak Tun Daim wang sejumlah RM 150 juta. Ini tentunya sebahagian kecil dari perolehan Tun Daim yang juga bertindak bagi pihak Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir. Saya menerima maklumat bahawa sebahagian besar wang tersebut adalah hasil pengagihan saham Resorts World, syarikat perjudian yang disenaraikan atas kelulusan Tun Daim sejurus sebelum meninggalkan Kementerian Kewangan pada tahun 1991 dahulu. Dengan kaedah sedemikian beliau telah menggunakan kedudukannya dalam kerajaan bagi mengambil manfaat bagi dirinya. Bagaimana pula dengan puluhan syarikat lainnya? Saya yakin bahawa dengan cara sedemikian, Tun Daim dengan restu Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir telah berjaya mengumpulkan berbillion ringgit. Saya juga telah mendapat maklumat bahawa syarikat Hati Budi yang dahulunya dikatakan dikuasai oleh UMNO telah diluputkan kepentingan oleh dua orang penama, iaitu Tan Sri Halim Saad dan Dato' Anuar Othman. Adalah difahamkan 400 juta saham yang dipegang oleh Dato' Anuar Othman yang disebut sebagai amanah untuk UMNO telah diarah oleh Tun Daim supaya dipindah kepada syarikat United Engineers dan Tan Sri Halim. Apabila saya laporkan masalah tersebut kepada Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir dalam tahun 1996, beliau menyatakan bahawa Tun Daim yang akan menguruskannya, dan mengarahkan saya supaya jangan mencampuri hal tersebut. Hanya setelah saya mendedahkan maklumat tersebut, maka Tun Daim segera berdalih menyatakan dalam Perhimpunan Agong UMNO 1999 baru-baru ini bahawa wang dan saham dari tiga ahli korporat itu adalah untuk UMNO. Nyatalah, bila nampak tersepit, barulah di sebut harta yang dikumpulkan itu hak Parti UMNO. Setahu saya, berdasarkan bukti surat, dan dari akaun dan maklumat Majlis Tertinggi atau Perhimpunan Agong UMNO, tidak pernah timbul sama sekali kepentingan Parti. Keduanya, selaku Menteri Kewangan menerima sumbangan peribadi beratus-ratus juta ringgit adalah rasuah besar dan pecah amanah jenayah. Sekiranya beliau sekarang mendakwa bahawa wang tersebut adalah hak Parti, beliau tetap bersalah kerana tidak pernah memberi laporan kepada Parti tentang wang tersebut. Hanya apabila saya mendedahkan mengenainya, baru beliau menyebutnya dalam Perhimpunan Agong yang lalu.

DATO' SERI ANWAR IBRAHIM'S POLICE REPORT AGAINST TUN DAIM ZAINUDDIN'S CORRUPTION ON 30 JUL 99

POLICE REPORT TUN HS LEE 20455/99

On April 14, 1999, when giving a statement in court, I have referred to several acts of corruption by the country's leaders. I have also referred to letters from three corporate figures addressed to Tun Daim Zainuddin, then Minister of Finance, which clearly proves that he received hundreds of millions of ringgit in cash and shares. Prime Minister Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir Mohammad did not just prevent actions, he even continued to protect the massive corruption committed by Tun Daim since he became Minister of Finance for the first time. In fact, until now, I understand that there has been no investigation by the police or the Anti-Corruption Agency. Herewith, I enclose legal documents to prove corruption, namely three letters written by Tan Sri Halim Saad, Tan Sri Tajuddin Ramli and Tan Sri Wan Azmi Hamzah. Tan Sri Halim, in a letter dated 30 April 1990, stated that he held as a trustee 52,208,500 Faber Merlin Bhd shares (1.00 shares) and 130,000,000 Renong Berhad shares (50 sen) on behalf of Tun Daim. He confirmed that the value of the shares was held according to the instructions of Tun Daim or his nominee. Tan Sri Tajuddin, in a letter to Tun Daim dated 24 May 1990, confirmed that he held in trust on behalf of Tun Daim a sum of RM 70 million. Tan Sri Wan Azmi, in a letter to Tun Daim dated 30 April 1990, admitted holding RM 150 million on behalf of Tun Daim. This is of course a small part of Tun Daim's earnings who also act on behalf of Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir. I received information that most of the money was the result of the distribution of shares of Resorts World, a gambling company that was listed with the approval of Tun Daim shortly before leaving the Ministry of Finance in 1991. With such a method he has used his position in the government to benefit himself. What about dozens of other companies? I am sure that in such a way, Tun Daim with the blessing of Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir has managed to collect billions of ringgit. I have also received information that the Hati Budi company which was previously said to be controlled by UMNO has been divested of its interests by two nominees, namely Tan Sri Halim Saad and Dato' Anuar Othman. It is understood that the 400 million shares held by Dato' Anuar Othman, which is said to be a trust for UMNO, was ordered by Tun Daim to be transferred to United Engineers and Tan Sri Halim. When I reported the problem to Dato Seri Dr. Mahathir in 1996, he stated that Tun Daim would manage it, and instructed me not to interfere in the matter. Only after I disclosed the information, then Tun Daim immediately excused himself stating in the recent 1999 UMNO General Assembly that the money and shares from the three corporate members were for UMNO. The truth is, when it seems to be stuck, then it is said that the property collected is the right of the UMNO Party. As far as I know, based on the evidence of the letter, and from the accounts and information of the Supreme Council or the UMNO General Assembly, no interest of the Party has ever arisen at all. Both, as the Minister of Finance receiving personal donations of hundreds of millions of ringgit is a major corruption and criminal breach of trust. If he now claims that the money is the right of the Party, he is still guilty of never giving a report to the Party about the money. It was only when I revealed about it that he mentioned it in the last Agong Assembly.
