Lim Kit Siang is wondering what happened to the police investigation into the Public Accounts Committee's report on 1MDB, which was initiated three months ago.

Lim also expressed surprise that police might not have a copy of the 1MDB audit report, on which the PAC report is based.

"How can inspector-general of police Khalid Abu Bakar explain the police failure to have a copy of the auditor-general’s report on 1MDB, after more than three months of police investigations into the PAC report?

"What has happened to the high-level police investigation into the PAC report on 1MDB, headed by the IGP himself, after more than three months?" Lim asked in a statement today.

This was in relation to Khalid's statement last week that police would have to check with auditor-general Ambrin Buang whether the alleged 1MDB audit documents leaked by Sarawak Report were genuine.

Lim wanted to know if the top cop had verified the authenticity of the documents with Ambrin.

The 1MDB audit documents have been kept classified under the Official Secrets Act.

Critics claimed that keeping the auditor-general's findings secret showed that Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak has something to hide.

The Sarawak Report articles based on the leaked 1MDB audit report claimed that the report is bad for Najib and the state investment firm, and contained "stark criticism" from Ambrin.

Malaysiakini cannot independently verify if the documents published by Sarawak Report are authentic, nor can it report on the contents due to legal restrictions.
