The police have been instructed to conduct a detailed and thorough investigation into allegations by several Pakatan Harapan MPs who received messages with corrupt elements via WhatsApp.
Home Minister Hamzah Zainudin (above) said apart from referring police reports on the matter to the MACC investigations were also carried out to determine the validity of the allegations made by the parties involved.
“The Home Ministry will ensure that stern action without compromise will be taken against any party proven to have committed criminal offences, including those who lodge false and defamatory police reports,” he said in a statement today.
Earlier today, the MACC in a statement said it met with three MPs from DAP regarding their allegations that they were offered bribes such as money and positions to support the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government.
The MACC said it viewed the allegations seriously.
Among those reported to have received such messages were Ipoh Barat MP M Kulasegaran, Ipoh Utara MP Wong Kah Woh, and Kota Melaka MP Khoo Poay Tiong.
