“The suspect, who is wheelchair-bound and paralysed from the waist down, will have his statement taken and be released on bail,” he said. Mazlan had explained that the complainant had lodged the report as early as February 17 this year, but then decided not to pursue the case. “The complainant was late in making the report because he was worried it would destroy his career, since the suspect was an influential person,” said Mazlan.
