  "summary": "Malaysian Mail reports that the son of former Baling MP Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim has refuted social media rumors suggesting his father was arrested by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) in connection with the Tabung Haji Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) Report. Mohamed Khairul Azman Abdul Azeez clarified on Facebook that his father is resting at their residence and not under arrest. The rumors gained traction following the public release of the Tabung Haji RCI Report on July 29, with Abdul Azeez previously expressing his willingness to cooperate fully with any related investigations. A special session of the Dewan Rakyat was convened on Tuesday to discuss and debate the report.",
