PETALING JAYA: Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun has refuted a Sarawak Report article which implied that the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) had sponsored the attendance of Asia's top cops at his daughter's wedding.

The Inspector-General of Police said the report was widely inaccurate.

"Only my counterpart from Brunei attended the wedding," he told The Star.

"When invitations were sent, it was understood that I would personally foot the bill.

"No funds from the Government or PDRM were used to pay for the wedding or travel expenses of my guests," he said.

Mohamad Fuzi said the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is welcome to investigate the claims.

"I am close to retirement and have more than enough savings to spend for my daughter's wedding.

"Why would I resort to such dubious means for my own daughter's wedding? I have nothing to hide," he said.

He further described the report by Sarawak Report as false and untrue and is mulling legal action against them.

Sarawak Report in an article on Friday (July 13), had questioned who had paid for a swathe of Asia's top cops to attend his daughter's wedding on July 1.

Sarawak Report claimed that the wedding was lavish and that invitations were sent out to other high-ranking policemen in south east Asia from Mohamad Fuzi's officein Bukit Aman.

The invitations, supposedly sent on April 6, via email with the subject "Wedding Reception of the Honourable IGP's Daughter" and begins with the words "Greetings From The Royal Malaysia Police".

It then goes on to extend the invitation from Fuzi and his wife – who was deceased at the time of the wedding – to various high-ranking police officers to the event at the One World Hotel in Bandar Utama here.

Mohamad Fuzi's wife, Puan Sri Azizah Hamdi passed away on Dec 15, 2017 from cancer.
