Ismail Sabri didakwa esok
Peguam kata bekas perdana menteri itu akan didakwa di Mahkamah Sesyen Kuala Lumpur.
Former Malaysian Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob will be charged in court tomorrow, according to his lawyer. Amer Hamzah Arshad, the lawyer, revealed this information to Kosmo. However, the specific details of the charges against Ismail are yet to be disclosed, he added. Previously scheduled proceedings on August 7 were postponed after he was admitted to the National Heart Institute, after which the court set the date for hearing the charges to be August 27.
Ismail is the focus of the criminal complaint for bribery and embezzlement of sacred funds. The Solicitor-General's Office (SPRM) has summoned him for several interview sessions last year. SPRM is investigating the discovery of approximately RM170 million in cash and 16kg of gold estimated to be worth millions of ringgit, allegedly stolen from the home of four men and three other premises believed to be "safe houses."
The investigation pertains to expenditure and funds obtained for promotional and publicity activities under the Malaysia Family Initiative while Ismail was serving as Prime Minister from August 2021 to November 2022. The anti-corruption agency further expanded its probe in June 2025.
