#KiniNews: Syed Saddiq under probe over critical views of PM, PN
Muar MP Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman has been summoned for questioning over an interview he gave back in March in which he was critical of Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and the Perikatan Nasional government.
Contacted by Malaysiakini today, he said that Bukit Aman had informed him on June 13 that he is being investigated over his appearance on Al Jazeera’s UpFront programme on March 6.
During the broadcasted interview, which was aired shortly after PN formed government, Syed Saddiq had expressed his disappointment in Muhyiddin for aligning himself with “kleptocrats” despite once vowing to challenge them.
The probe on the former Youth and Sports minister comes after the police investigations into former Water, Land and Natural Resources minister Xavier Jayakumar and former Women, Family and Community Development deputy minister Hannah Yeoh over their comments about the present administration.
