The former political secretary of Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad swore that he had no knowledge or involvement whatsoever in Project IC despite being implicated, the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) on illegal immigrants in Sabah heard today.
Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Shamsuddin, who later became the Minister of Rural andRegional Development in 2004, said he had only heard about Project IC through his son, who informed him that his name had been mentioned during the RCI.
"I don't know anything about Project IC beyond what I have read in the newspapers. I had nothing to do with it or any of the government agencies who have been implicated in the project," he told the five-men RCI panel led by former Sabah and Sarawak Chief Justice Tan Sri Steve Shim Lip Kiong.
"These are unfounded and baseless allegations which have been made against me. When I worked under Dr Mahathir and later as a minister, I merely did my work and never attempted to be a busybody," said Abdul Aziz. - August 16, 2013
