FMT ALERT

KUALA LUMPUR: PKR vice-president Tian Chua will know by next week if he will remain as Batu MP, Dewan Rakyat Speaker Pandikar Amin Mulia said today.

Pandikar said he is currently deliberating on the matter and is in consultation with legal advisers and will decide next week after the issue was raised by Pasir Mas MP Ibrahim Ali via a letter.

Last week, Minister in the Prime Minister Department Nazri Abdul Aziz said lawmakers from the ruling coalition had initially wanted to submit a motion urging the House to decide on the matter immediately but hit the breaks in the last minute, saying the move was “ungentleman like”.
