Chua's Nightmare

Police are now investigating the sex DVD involving former health minister Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek for an unnatural sex act.

Selangor police chief Datuk Khalid Abu Bakar, when contacted, confirmed Dr Chua was called in to have his statement recorded pertaining to the video clip.

He said: “We are investigating the case under Section 292 of the Penal Code for distribution and possession of pornographic material and Section 377A for carnal intercourse against the order of nature.”

Police recorded a statement from Dr Chua at the district police headquarters here in connection with his sex DVD, which was left in a postbox recently.

On Feb 11, a 51-year-old man from Kelana Jaya found the DVD inside an envelope in his postbox when he returned home.

The man was shocked to find pornographic content and then lodged a report at the Kelana Jaya police station.

Dr Chua, clad in blue shirt and black pants, arrived at the headquarters at about 10.30am and left an hour later yesterday.

When asked, he said his presence at the headquarters was to meet an old friend.

“Can’t I even come to the police station? I’m here just to see an old friend of mine. Must there be a reason before I’m allowed to come to the police station?” he asked reporters.

He also refuted claims he was there to have his statement recorded.

However, Dr Chua, in a later statement, said he went to the station to identify a video clip, following a report made by a man.

He stated that he told the police the video clip was similar to the one he identified in January last year.

Dr Chua claimed there was an attempt by some parties to continue to discredit, threaten and cow him into silence.

Dr Chua, who admitted to being the one featured in the sex video clip, resigned from all party and government posts on Jan 2, last year, following the revelation and circulation of the video clip in Johor.

He has since returned to politics, after winning the MCA deputy president’s post late last year.
