Anwar tolak dakwaan menteri terima RM9.5 juta daripada ahli perniagaan
Anwar Ibrahim berkata dakwaan itu tidak disokong sebarang bukti dan menteri berkenaan sudah membawa perkara tersebut ke mahkamah.
Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim refuted allegations that a minister received RM9.5 million from a businessman, claiming the accusations were politically motivated and unsupported by evidence. In a question-and-answer session at the House of Representatives, Anwar stated that all allegations of corruption must be investigated without any exceptions.
"The allegation of RM9.5 million is a political statement unsubstantiated by any evidence. The minister in question has already denied the accusation and taken the matter to court," he said. Anwar also emphasized that corruption allegations are not limited to any specific political party. "If there are cases involving PKR members, I will not use my authority to stop them, including the case of my former political secretary, Shamsul Iskandar Akin, who is facing a corruption trial," he added, referring to Shamsul Iskandar Akin.
Anwar responded to Rosol Wahid (PN-Hulu Terengganu) regarding investigations into activities dubbed as corporate mafia targeting businessmen Victor Chin, Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak, and former Director-General of the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC), Azam Baki. Rosol cited a podcast allegation that a minister received RM9.5 million to mediate resolving issues related to corporate mafia.
