Dapsy urges AG to review evidence, charges in Zahid's Yayasan Akalbudi case
KUALA LUMPUR: DAP Socialist Youth (Dapsy) has urged the Attorney-General (AG) to review the evidence and charges in Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi’s Yayasan Akalbudi case, saying political considerations must not override justice.
In a recent development, the DAP Youth has called on the attorney-general to reevaluate the Yayasan Akalbudi case involving Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi. The youth wing argues that the government's anti-corruption efforts should not be applied differently to politicians within Umno. The case, which includes 47 charges of corruption, money laundering, and criminal breach of trust, was granted a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA) in 2023 to facilitate further investigations by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission.
However, in January, the case was classified as requiring no further action (NFA). DAP Youth asserts that the AG must uphold transparency and independence in the prosecution system, demonstrating his commitment to safeguarding the administration of justice.
