It could be none other than the infamous D P Vijandran (pic above) or better known as DPV (once dubbed by DAP leader Lim Kit Siang as the Director of Pornographic Video).
The other two lawyers are Ravi Nekoo and Pushpa Ratnam.
The infamous incident involved the former (DP Vijandran) being accused of videotaping himself having sex with many women in 1989 (11 tapes altogether). He was then a member of Parliament and a Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker.
It was also alleged that the government has whitewashed the DPV scandal by destroying all the evidence (the tapes) during the course of investigation. In the final episode Attorney-General Tan Sri Abu Talib Othman ordered the police to destroy 11 video tapes and four envelopes containing photographs and negatives belonging to Mr. Vijandran - and with Mr. Vijandran's consent.
Mr Vijandran was acquitted of all the accusation resulting from the scandal but he resigned amid all the claims and accusations. In 1994, he was convicted on a perjury charge relating to the tapes, and was jailed and fined. He lost his appeal in the High Court, but the Court of Appeal ruled in his favour in 1998. His political career did not recover.
Well I do. It takes a thief to catch a thief. Does it not take a conman to help other con-men?
Earlier today the Attorney-General Tan Sri Abdul Gani Patail has demanded that the police conduct further investigations into the murder of Datuk Sosilawati Lawiya and three others before the his office takes any action.

DAP leader Lim Kit Siang said yesterday that he intends to rake Hishammuddin over the coals for the way the police are probing the gruesome murders.
So what does this tell us about the thoroughness and efficiency (or lack thereof) of police investigations in this matter?
yup, it stinks to high heavens
