PETALING JAYA: Bukit Gelugor MP Ramkarpal Singh has slammed Home Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin for accusing the family of the late Teoh Beng Hock of wanting more compensation from the Government.

"Teoh's family is not seeking what they are not entitled to. They are seeking justice and it is the duty of the state to provide that justice properly and competently by investigating Teoh's death," said the lawyer.

"It does not in any way indicate that Teoh's family accepts that there was no element of homicide in his death, or that the said criminal investigations have been satisfactory." Ramkarpal said that Muhyiddin's remarks seemed to overlook the findings of the Court of Appeal, which suggested that there were elements of foul play and homicide in Teoh's death.

"It is hoped that the criminal investigations are satisfactorily concluded as soon as possible in order to bring closure to this unfortunate saga," he added.
