The Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court today acquitted former Kuala Lumpur CID chief Ku Chin Wah on the charge of failing to declare all sources of his income.
Sessions judge Sohaini Alias, in her judgment, said the defence has managed to create doubts in the case.
"The prosecution has failed to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. As such, the accused is hereby acquitted and the bail to be returned," she said.
The former senior police officer was charged with intentionally failing to abide by the prosecutor's notice dated Dec 23, 2013, under Section 49(1) of the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act 2001, to declare all sources of his income.
He was accused of failing to make the declaration at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters between Dec 23, 2013, and Jan 21, 2014.
Ku was represented by lawyer Geetham Ram Vincent, while DPP Budiman Lutfi Mohamad prosecuted.
