[KiniNews] The Attorney-General's Chambers (AGC) has confirmed that the prosecution in the RM1.12 million corruption case against Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman has submitted a final appeal in the Federal Court.
The AGC referred to a Court of Appeal ruling yesterday that acquitted the Muar MP of four charges related to criminal breach of trust, misappropriation of property and money laundering involving Bersatu Youth funds.
It added that the filing of this notice of appeal is a normal practice in the country’s judicial system and does not reflect any prejudice towards any parties.
Meanwhile, in a separate story, PAS is distancing itself from a grassroots leader’s controversial comment.
The party stressed that the remarks on Facebook, made by Sungai Buloh PAS division chief Zaharuddin Muhammad, who is also the son-in-law of PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang, do not represent its official position.
PAS secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan said that the party takes the matter seriously and would not hesitate to initiate disciplinary action against members who tarnish the party’s image or disrupt harmony in society.
