KUALA LUMPUR, July 25 — Opposition lawmakers lodged reports over the Perikatan Nasional government’s alleged mismanagement of the Covid-19 pandemic at the Pantai police station here today.

The group led by lawyer and human rights activist Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan said that Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba and related ministries must be held accountable and face the legal consequences of the alleged mismanagement.

“We decided to lodge a report because we believe there must be accountability. Some of the issues that we highlighted include not enough early testing, the manner in which the government has failed to share (enough) information, mistreatment of migrant workers and not enough resources given to the hospitals.

“We are now asking the accountability of this government in the way that they have handled this crisis. They must know that there are legal consequences for negligence in Malaysia today.
