Zahid akan jumpa Ismail ‘bila-bila masa’ ketika PAU
Presiden Umno berkata, beliau sedia luang masa bertemu MB Negeri Sembilan untuk dapat penjelasan dakwaan dipaksa tandatangani proklamasi turunkan Tuanku Muhriz.
Presiden Umno Zahid Hamidi has confirmed that he plans to meet with Negeri Sembilan's Chief Minister Ismail Lasim during the Umno National Assembly (PAU) 2026, as part of an investigation into allegations related to the forced signing of a proclamation reducing Tuanku Muhriz to Tuanku Munawir's position as Yang Dipertuan Besar. Speaking ahead of the PAU, Zahid stated that Ismail will likely meet with him at some point during the assembly, and an explanation will be provided.
He added that he will inquire about the background of the claim when the opportunity arises. Following the meeting, Ismail denied being coerced into signing the proclamation and filed a police report to initiate an investigation. Meanwhile, Zahid dismissed speculation about potential right-wing Umno leaders facing charges by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) after the PAU concludes, stating that he has not received any official information about the matter.
He assured that the party would not obstruct or evade cooperation with MACC if there is strong evidence for prosecution, but emphasized that investigations must be conducted fairly and transparently.
