  "account": "Former Selangor Chief Minister Khir Toyo urged police to file a report against former Transport Minister Loke Siew Fook, relating to the minister's alleged attempt to avoid taking up his post following a Supreme Court ruling allowing Najib Razak to serve the remainder of his prison sentence at home. Toyo also called for Whip of the Perikatan Nasional, Takiyuddin Hassan, to refer Loke to a parliamentary committee concerning the same matter. Khir claimed Loke's actions as a defiance of the Constitution on the grounds of pardon power, and declared such a culture cannot be tolerated. He warned that if we allow this, young people will increasingly act with disregard for the Constitution. Loke announced his resignation effective immediately yesterday following the High Court's ruling allowing Najib to serve the remainder of his prison term under house arrest. The DAP general secretary had earlier announced his intention to step down after conditional pardon for Najib, but agreed to continue his duties temporarily at the Prime Minister's request. DAP senior advisor Lim Guan Eng characterized Loke's resignation as a clear demonstration of the party's stance and principles. Loke's appearance at a Pakatan Harapan rally in Melaka was met with cheers and angry shouts from supporters. Today, Umno President Zahid Hamidi stated that any action showing signs of protest, including using conditional pardon as a reason for taking any decision, undermines and disrespects the powers of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.",
