Azmin's political secretary gives statement at Bukit Aman

Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali's political secretary Muhammad Hilman Idham (photo, above) gave his statement today on the sex video case.

Hilman, accompanied by his lawyer Muhammad Hafiz Hood, arrived at the Bukit Aman police headquarters at 10.05am. He emerged from the station almost three hours later.

The Gombak Setia assemblyperson said a police escort of Azmin also had his statement recorded over the case.

“Police wanted me to confirm several matters. This is the third time that I was called in to give a statement after lodging a report at the Putrajaya police headquarters to assist the investigation.

“I am always prepared to give my cooperation to the police,” he said.

On June 13, Hilman made a police report on the video case before filing a qazaf (false accusation of extramarital sex) complaint to enable further investigations on the dissemination of the video.
