However, he refused to disclose whether the two individuals had given their statements or not.
“Once we get the answers to all of these, the Attorney-General will decide whether there are any offences (committed).
“Therefore, I urge all parties to have patience and think rationally with regards to the issue. The police will investigate and take the necessary action in accordance with the laws,” he told Bernama on Thursday (Nov 28).
The media reported that the ashes of Chin Peng (his real name Ong Boon Hua), were brought into the country on Sep 16 and scattered into the sea near Lumut, Perak, and in the jungles in Titiwangsa Range without any memorial or markers.
