Following that, Inspector Khor was given a list of wri�en ques�ons, including
ques�ons about the gold Toyota Vios for him to ascertain evidence about the
owner during a break in the hearing of the Public Inquiry. The list of ques�ons
was submi�ed by Counsel for the family of Amri Che Mat to Inspector Khor with
the consent of the Panel. In his wri�en answers, Inspector Khor iden�fied Saiful
Bahari as an administra�ve assistant working at the Police Training Center
(PULAPOL) at Jalan Semarak in Kuala Lumpur. In evidence, Inspector Khor said
that Saiful Bahari had stopped work at PULAPOL in November 2017. He said he
tried to locate Saiful Bahari at his home address but Saiful Bahari could not be
found there. Inspector Khor informed that Saiful Bahari's supervisor at PULAPOL
was one Inspector Mohd Azizie Abd Hamid (IW21) (“Mohd Azizie”). It was later
learnt that Mohd Azizie was in fact holding the rank of an ASP and not an
Inspector, a�ached to the Special Branch, Kuala Lumpur.

On 6 August 2018 and 27 August 2018, ASP Mohd Azizie tes�fied in the Public
Inquiry into the disappearance of Amri Che Mat. He iden�fied himself as an
Assistant Superintendent of Police with the Logis�cs Management and Housing
Department of the Special Branch in Bukit Aman. He said that Saiful Bahari was
the only staff a�ached to him at the material �me in PULAPOL and gave the
impression that Saiful Bahari’s job was as a low-level general handyman, said to
be in charge of cleaning and maintenance of the Police accommoda�on in
PULAPOL. ASP Mohd Azizie claimed that Saiful Bahari stopped coming to work in
early November 2017, while his contract expired in March 2018. A week a�er
Saiful Bahari stopped coming to work, ASP Mohd Azizie said that he tried to
contact him and even visited his home but Saiful Bahari could not be located. He
also claimed that Saiful Bahari could not have been in the Toyota Vios sighted by
Vee Yak in late November 2016 because according to a Schedule of leave which
he prepared, Saiful Bahari was working in Kuala Lumpur for the 10 days before
Amri Che Mat's disappearance. He later confirmed that the Schedule of Leave
which he prepared based on Saiful Bahari's leave applica�ons, was for the
purposes of giving his evidence at the Public Inquiry.
