Clarify stance on 1MDB scandal, DAP told - superadmin - 02-05-2024 PETALING JAYA: DAP must clarify its stance on the 1MDB scandal following the Federal Territories Pardons Board’s decision to commute former prime minister Najib Razak’s sentence in the SRC International case, says former Bangi MP Ong Kian Ming. In a statement, Ong said DAP had extensively used the 1MDB scandal in its campaigns for the 2018 and 2022 general elections. “This (clarification) must include taking a firm position that the ongoing 1MDB cases against Najib should continue and not experience the same fate as the conditional discharge granted to deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (in his Yayasan Akal Budi case),” he said. Last Friday, it was announced that Najib’s prison sentence had been reduced from 12 years to six. His fine was also reduced from RM210 million to RM50 million. However, if he fails to settle the fine, a year will be added to his sentence, the board said. - More -
