00:00The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission has offered a goodwill contribution to the family

00:05of the late Teo Benghok as a gesture of compassion.

00:08In a statement, MACC Chief Commissioner Azam Bakis said there was insufficient evidence

00:13to charge anyone in Teo's death but said the agency took the incident very seriously.

00:18Azam expressed his deepest sympathies and issued an apology to Teo's family for their

00:22pain and suffering.

00:24Teo died on July 16, 2009 after falling from the 14th floor of Plaza Masalam while under

00:29MACC interrogation.

00:30An inquest returned an open verdict, but in 2014, the Court of Appeal ruled that his death

00:35was caused by one or more persons unknown, including MACC officers.

00:40In 2019, police launched an investigation under Section 342 of the Penal Code for wrongful

00:45confinement.

00:47Prior to 2018, two special investigation teams were set up, one in 2011 and the other in

00:512015, to look into Teo's death but were classified as no further action by the public prosecutor.

00:57In 2015, the government settled a civil suit with Teo's family, paying 600,000 ringgit

01:02in compensation and 60,000 ringgit in illegal costs.

01:06The family had named the government and 12 others in the suit for negligence over his death.

01:10Azam highlighted several reforms MACC had implemented since then, including increased CCTV coverage,

01:16body cameras and installing iron grills, and re-infirmed the agency's commitment to integrity,

01:20transparency and ongoing institutional reforms.
