Lawyer Rajesh Nagarajan has slammed the police for questioning businessperson Albert Tei's legal counsel about the content of a conversation between the latter and his client.

This came after the counsel, Mahajoth Singh, was summoned to the Sepang district police headquarters today, where an investigating officer recorded his statement about Nov 28's MACC raid on Tei's residence.

Solicitor-client privilege is sacrosanct, cannot be breached - Rajesh.
