Teoh’s family and others have called the MACC’s version of events into question. When the investigating officer involved briefed the MACC’s advisory board, several members of the board “asked why he chose to stay back. Any detainee would have ran for his life! The investigating officer replied that since Teoh wanted to stay back, he allowed it.”

During this briefing it also emerged that no official records of Teoh’s detention or his release existed. In August, a video of men in uniform assaulting a man in their custody began circulating as a supposed video of Teoh’s interrogation.

The Bukit Aman federal police headquarters denied the men were police personnel. The video had previously been circulated in June as a supposed example of police interrogation techniques, ruling out the possibility of it involving Teoh.

A political observer attributed the video’s popularity to the government’s failing to provide adequate clarification about the circumstances of Teoh’s interrogation: “The authorities are shedding little light about what happened to Teoh. This allows rumour mongers to spread ridiculous things.”
