Ismail Sabri didakwa esok
Peguam kata bekas perdana menteri itu akan didakwa di Mahkamah Sesyen Kuala Lumpur.
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob is set to face charges at Kuala Lumpur High Court tomorrow, according to his lawyer Amer Hamzah Arshad. However, the specifics of the allegations against him remain unknown, as reported by Kosmo. Previously, a scheduled trial on July 7 had to be postponed after Ismail was admitted to the National Heart Institute.
The court subsequently set a hearing for August 27. The accusations against Ismail pertain to corruption and embezzlement of funds, with SPRM (Special Probe Unit Malaysia) calling him multiple times for recorded interviews last year. SPRM is investigating the discovery of approximately RM170 million in cash and 16kg of gold allegedly stolen from four men's homes and other premises believed to serve as safe houses.
This investigation, reportedly related to expenditure and funds for promotional and publicity activities under the Malaysia Family initiative, when Ismail was appointed as Prime Minister from August 2021 to November 2022. The anti-corruption agency has expanded its probe in June 2025.
