Progress on the case involving 12 Malaysian police officers suspected of robbing a Chinese citizen of 50,000 USDT remains slow; the victim’s lawyer has warned that the matter will be reported to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.
According to the New Straits Times, in the case involving “12 Malaysian police officers allegedly conspiring to rob eight Chinese citizens of 50,000 USDT” that occurred in February this year, the victims’ legal counsel criticized the police for excessively delaying their investigation and warned that if internal cover-ups are confirmed, they would file a complaint with Malaysia’s Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC). Previously, the police were accused of forcibly entering the victims’ residence under the pretext of an “anti-fraud raid,” coercing the victims into transferring cryptocurrency assets despite having no evidence of criminal activity. In his latest response, the Inspector-General of Police stated that all implicated officers have been suspended from active duty; however, the investigation remains pending due to the lengthy process required for cryptocurrency forensic analysis and technical reporting, and the case continues to be investigated as one of “conspiracy to commit robbery.”
