Malaysiakini

The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) will investigate allegations that several Sabah state assemblypersons were offered money and positions to jump parties recently.
Sabah MACC director S Karunanithy said the commission had contacted the assemblypersons said to be involved.
“As a result of this interaction, the assemblypersons refused to make an official report to the MACC on the grounds that there were no corrupt transactions at the time.
"However, Sabah MACC will continue to conduct investigations and is ready to receive complaints or related information (pertaining to this matter) from anyone involved,” he said in a statement in Kota Kinabalu today.
Previously, there were media reports claiming that several Sabah representatives had been offered money and positions to jump party. - Bernama
