Malaysia's Penang Deputy Chief Minister II P. Ramasamy’s alleged links to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) are to be investigated, according to a report in the Malaysian Star.
Malaysia's IGP, Tan Sri Mohamad Fuzi Harun told local media the matter had turned into a “case of interest”, especially after 53 police reports were lodged on the matter.
“We are currently investigating ... The investigation was initially handled by the Penang police.
“However, Bukit Aman has taken over and we will investigate thoroughly,” he said at a press conference.
Allegations of Ramasamy’s ties were widespread after a photo of himself and pro-LTTE politician V. Gopalasamy circulated online.
The photo is believed to have been taken during a recent wedding reception.
The LTTE has been classified as a terror group by multiple foreign countries.
