Khalid Abu Bakar says he instructed the Perlis police chief to first ascertain if the camps and graves were located on the Malaysian side of the border.
PUTRAJAYA: Former top cop Khalid Abu Bakar today defended his instructions to put on hold all aspects of investigations into the discovery of mass graves and human trafficking camps in Wang Kelian four years ago.
“On the discovery, he could not give me any information. I ordered him to get more information on the discovery and those believed to be involved.Khalid said when Zul briefed him on the matter, he said the exact location had yet to be determined. “They also wanted to gather information on those involved. When the police chief briefed me, and when I asked him for the information, he could not give it.”
When asked whether he had followed up with Zul after that, Khalid said he did, as far as he could recall. “I said just now that when I asked for more information on who was involved, he could not tell me. I was not happy.Khalid also told the panel that he had met up with his Thai counterpart at a meeting in Phuket, but that he could not recall when.
