Where were you when Lim’s charges were dropped, Gobind asked
Bersatu man asks the DAP chairman if he had also demanded an explanation from the AG when Lim Guan Eng's bungalow charges were dropped in 2018.
When asked about the dropping of four graft charges against former Malaysian Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin, Bersatu Youth chief Harris Idaham Rashid questioned DAP chairman Gobind Singh Deo's motives. Rashid accused Gobind of displaying hypocrisy, as DAP had previously criticized the Attorney-General's decision to discontinue Lim Guan Eng's charges in a separate case.
Rashid wondered why Gobind had not demanded an explanation from the Attorney-General regarding the dropping of Lim's charges, given that the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission had expressed surprise at the decision. The Bersatu Youth president emphasized that the DAP often acts as a moral judge when it comes to political rivals, but loses its voice when it involves one of its own, an insult to the Malaysian judicial system.
Muhyiddin, facing three abuse of power charges related to the Jana Wibawa programme, still awaits the Attorney-General's Chambers' detailed explanation for the discontinuation of the charges.
