‘Serah laporan kepada saya’



NAMPAK gayanya laporan penuh berhubung siasatan yang dijalankan ke atas bekas Timbalan Presiden Kesatuan Olahraga Malaysia (KOM), Datuk Karim Ibrahim akan mengambil masa lebih lama untuk didedahkan.

Ini kerana, Presiden baharu KOM, Datuk Zainal Abidin Ahmad (gambar) tetap dengan pendiriannya yang sekadar mahu mengambil pendekatan tunggu dan lihat selagi laporan itu tidak berada dalam tangannya.

“Saya langsung tidak tahu apa-apa berhubung siasatan yang dijalankan ke atas Datuk Karim. Apa isi kandungan petisyen yang dihantar oleh jurulatih dan atlet mengenai beliau pun saya tidak tahu.
“Lagi pun, laporan itu hanya berada di tangan Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim (bekas Presiden KOM). Jadi, macam mana saya hendak membuat keputusan jika laporan itu berada di tangan orang lain.
“Saya tidak boleh berbuat apa-apa selagi laporan itu saya tidak terima,” kata Zainal ketika dihubungi Kosmo! semalam.

Ditanya sama ada beliau akan meminta laporan itu sendiri daripada Shahidan, Zainal berkata: “Kenapa pula saya perlu minta daripada beliau?

“Ketika AGM (Mesyuarat Agung Tahunan) hari itu (Ahad lalu), Datuk Seri Shahidan sendiri yang pulang begitu sahaja. Beliau pulang tanpa mengumumkan atau melakukan serahan tugas kepada kepimpinan baharu KOM.

“Jadi, siapa yang perlu bertanggungjawab? Sekarang ini, kita tunggu sahajalah laporan itu daripada Datuk Seri Shahidan.

“Apabila saya sudah menerimanya nanti, barulah saya boleh meneliti laporan itu,” ujar Zainal yang menewaskan Shahidan dalam perebutan jawatan Presiden pada pemilihan pucuk pimpinan KOM sempena AGM badan induk itu Ahad lalu.

Pada Jun dan Julai lalu, satu jawatankuasa siasatan yang diketuai bekas Hakim Mahkamah Rayuan, Tan Sri V.C George telah menjalankan siasatan ke atas Karim.

Ia berikutan tindakan sekumpulan jurulatih dan atlet olahraga negara menyerahkan petisyen meminta KOM menyingkirkan Karim yang didakwa sebagai dalang utama terhadap segala masalah yang menimpa badan itu sebelum ini.

Laporan penuh berhubung siasatan tersebut telah diserahkan kepada Shahidan 20 September lalu dan salinannya turut dihantar kepada Presiden Majlis Olimpik Malaysia (MOM), Tan Sri Tunku Imran Tuanku Ja'afar serta Karim sendiri.

Ex-coach's jail sentence cut to a year

PUTRAJAYA: The Court of Appeal yesterday sentenced former athletics coach C. Ramanathan to 12 months' jail for molesting two junior athletes 19 years ago. A three-man bench led by Datuk Mohd Hishamudin Mohd Yunus unanimously dismissed Ramanathan's appeal against conviction, but varied the jail sentence of four years to a year, which was to run concurrently. Following yesterday's ruling, Ramanathan, 75, a former teacher, walked out a free man as he had served 10 months in Kajang Prison. Convicts get one-third remission for good behaviour while in prison. However, he will lose his pension. Hishamudin, who sat with Datuk Abdul Wahab Patail and Datuk Linton Albert, said the court found no merit to overturn the conviction. "However, in reducing the sentence, we considered Ramanathan's age and the long years the appeal has taken." Deputy public prosecutor Awang Armadajaya Awang Mahmud submitted that then High Court judge Tan Sri Abdull Hamid E...
