DPP Haji noted that he had spoken to the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) on the matter and confirmed that his office would take up the matter once IPOA has submitted its findings.
"DPP Noordin Haji has however directed IPOA to carry out thorough investigations into the matter and forward resultant file to his Office for appropriate direction," a brief statement from his office read.
At the same time, the ODPP disowned a letter bearing the State office's letterhead and the DPP's signature as a fraud.
