General Khan used his relationship with an alleged tobacco smuggler to plant questions to the Inspector General through the EFF, aiming to trap the Inspector General in a lie to facilitate his removal.
“what he did was he used his relationship with an alleged tobacco smuggler to plant questions to the Inspector General through the EFF in the hope of trapping the Inspector General in a lie to Parliament”
General Khan, Mr Marimuthu and the Inspector General had a meeting together, and the intent was not about Khan using his surveillance capacities to find something but rather hoping the Inspector General would lie when questioned in Parliament regarding Mr Marimuthu.
“What we have seen is a press report purporting to quote him on this issue, and what he says is that he and General Khan together had a meeting with Mr Marimuthu, in which event what this process would have been about is not about General Khan using his Crime Intelligence surveillance capacities to find something out about the Inspector General, but actually having had a meeting with the Inspector General and Mr Marimuthu, and hoping that because he was not present at the Joint Standing Committee on Intelligence when pushed in relation to an issue regarding Mr Marimuthu, the Inspector General would lie”
General Khan's participation in a meeting with the Inspector General and Mr Marimuthu, involving sensitive Crime Intelligence issues, was improper as such information should not be shared regardless of personal relationships or political affiliations.
“If General Khan was in this meeting with the Inspector General and Mr Marimuthu, those are Crime Intelligence issues that are sensitive. They are not to be shared with just anybody whether they are your friends or acquaintances... leave aside the political party”
General Khan and Mr Marimuthu had a meeting with Inspector General Dintwe, aiming to have Dintwe lie regarding an issue connected to Mr Marimuthu, as Dintwe was not present at a relevant committee event.
“General Khan together had a meeting with Mr Marimuthu ... hoping that because he was not present at the Joint Standing Committee on Intelligence ... the Inspector General would lie”
The meeting involving General Khan, Inspector General Dintwe, and Mr Marimuthu concerned sensitive Crime Intelligence issues which should not have been shared with just anybody regardless of their relationships or profession.
