KUALA LUMPUR: Former Kuala Lumpur CID chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk Ku Chin Wah (pic) remains a free man after the High Court here upheld his acquittal over allegations of failing to declare all his sources of income four years ago. High Court judge Justice Azman Abdullah made the decision after dismissing an appeal by the prosecution against a Sessions Court decision that acquitted and discharged Ku, 59, in May. DPPs Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud and Budiman Lutfi appeared for the prosecution while Ku was represented by lawyer Datuk Geethan Ram Vincent. On May 26, a Sessions Court here acquitted and discharged Ku after finding the defence had proven reasonable doubt at the end of the defence case. The offence was allegedly committed at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission headquarters in Putrajaya between Dec 23, 2013, and Jan 21, 2014.
