Contrary to what the IGP said, the Australian police did not ‘clear’ the CID chief but instead acted upon their suspicion and seized A$320,000 deposited under Australia’s Proceeds of Crime Act.
For the story:
Who can afford to give up AU$320,000 (RM970,000)? You can’t? Well, the CID Chief can!

KUALA LUMPUR — A senior police officer is expected to be charged with money laundering at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court this morning (Jan 22), following a widespread graft investigation which began more than two years ago.
Sources told The Malaysian Insider that the police officer with a Datuk honorific will be charged under the Anti-Money Laundering Act.
The officer who was serving at the Kuala Lumpur police headquarters, was transferred to the federal police management division, after the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) began investigating him two years ago.
It is learnt that he is currently still at the management division.
The Malaysian Insider had reported two years ago that the Datuk was among 60 policemen being probed in one of the biggest anti-graft operations carried out by various agencies.
It was reported that the operation began after a disgruntled policeman, who was part of this group headed by the Datuk, spilled the beans on his colleagues after he became dissatisfied with his monthly payoff.
A high-powered anti-graft operation involving MACC, Bank Negara, the Inland Revenue Department, National Registration Department, Immigration Department and Customs was launched, and some 60 policemen were taken in for questioning.
At the height of the investigations, it was reported that MACC found that the Datuk had stashed more than RM6 million (S$1.98 million) in various accounts.
An official then said that the figure was just the “tip of the iceberg”.
Investigations also revealed that several other policemen had at least RM1 million or more in their respective bank accounts.

MACC confirms senior cop questioned over money laundering case – Bernama
A newspaper today reported that a senior police officer had been called to give a statement to assist the MACC in a case against three police officers over a RM6-million money-laundering case.
In November, the daily also reported that the three police officers, with the rank of DSP, ASP and Sergeant, were nabbed separately by the MACC and that during the arrests, the MACC found RM500,000 in cash, three Rolex watches as well as jewellery.
An initial investigation by the MACC revealed a money-laundering activity involving millions of ringgit, it said.
Two of the arrested officers had been transferred to Johor and the third, to Negeri Sembilan, it said, adding that one of the officers was suspected to have been involved in laundering RM1.7 million and another, RM4.3 million. – Bernama, December 26, 2013.
