KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 18 – Tension gripped the Dewan Rakyat Tuesday when Kota Melaka MP Khoo Poay Tiong (PH) pressed Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on government action against corruption suspects fleeing abroad, spotlighting Datuk Seri Muhammad Adlan Berhan, son-in-law of former PM Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
Fugitive
“SPRM wants to charge Pagoh’s son-in-law, but he fled right after his father-in-law’s court case. Has SPRM asked the father-in-law where he went?” Khoo demanded during Question Time.
Opposition MPs erupted, with Datuk Abdul Khalib Abdullah (PN-Rompin) decrying the “heartbreaking” repeated barbs. Speaker Tan Sri Johari Abdul urged restraint, barring direct name-drops. Anwar assured ongoing police and MACC pursuits, including passport revocations. The clash underscores persistent graft accountability debates.
