Ismail Sabri selesai pembedahan pasang perentak jantung
Bekas PM itu dinasihatkan agar berehat selepas pembedahan di IJN petang tadi.
A surgical procedure to implant a pacemaker in Ismail Sabri Yaakob was successfully completed at the National Heart Institute (IJN) on Tuesday, addressing his irregular heartbeat condition. Subsequent to the operation, he was advised to rest and family members were permitted to visit only. At 66, the former Prime Minister was admitted to IJN the day before following a heart issue while testifying before the Malaysia Anti-Corruption Agency (SPRM) during an investigation into 2021-2022 family initiatives and spending.
His lawyer, Amer Hamzah Arshad, stated that Ismail Sabri appeared anxious during the SPRM interrogation. Amer added that his client was admitted to IJN about two weeks ago following a fall, with the follow-up incident reportedly causing his heart to stop for around two minutes. He is scheduled to undergo follow-up checks next Monday.
The planned court hearing involving Ismail Sabri's criminal complaint and acknowledgment record has been postponed to August 27 due to the health condition of the judge, Suzana Hussin Mahkamah Sesyen. Previously, Ismail Sabri was under investigation for corruption allegations and embezzlement of haram (forbidden) funds, and had previously been summoned for several SPRM hearings last year.
The probe centered on the discovery of RM170 million and 16kg of gold allegedly stolen from a four-man and three-property safehouse during raids. The investigation, which related to family initiatives and revenue generation under the Malaysia Family initiative when Ismail Sabri served as Prime Minister from August 2021 to November 2022, was finalized by SPRM in June 2025.
