  "account": "In June, Mas Gading MP Mordi Bimol claimed a last-minute venue change for a driving licence assistance programme was sabotage. The Progressive Democratic Party's (PDP) youth faction has called on him to provide concrete proof, stating that unsubstantiated claims should not be used to tarnish government entities. The PDP urged Mordi to pinpoint instances of community leaders being dissuaded or barred from seeking his assistance at the service centre, noting that DAP MP Henry Harry Jinep, representing Tasik Biru, denied making such threats. If there are verified cases of leaders being intimidated or penalised for approaching an elected MP, they must be scrutinized.",
