Robert Phang lodges report over book on Gani

Former Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) advisory panel member Robert Phang has urged the authorities to probe attorney-general Abdul Gani Patail’s alleged abuses of power as described in a new book entitled ‘Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail: Pemalsu, Penipu, Penjenayah?’

Phang (left) said that he wants the police and MACC to investigate the allegations against Abdul Gani in the 123-page book, written by lawyer Zainal Abidin Ahmad.

He has also asked the AG to investigate the accusations made in the book and sue the author for defamation if the allegations are wrong.

“The AG must seriously address the issue made in the public domain and should not be a liability to the government,” he told Malaysiakini today after lodging a police report this morning.

He made the report at around 11am at the Jalan Tun Razak police station in Kuala Lumpur.

The 14-chapter book was self-published by Zainal recently.

Due to the allegations made in this book, Phang had last week challenged Abdul Gani to come forward and clear his name.

During a press conference last week, he had urged the attorney-general to take responsibility and not to be a stumbling block to the BN.
