Tasik Gelugor MP Datuk Wan Saiful Wan Jan is facing money laundering and corruption charges related to the Jana Wibawa Scheme . — Picture by Firdaus LatifKUALA LUMPUR, June 24 — The Dewan Rakyat today approved a motion to refer Tasek Gelugor MP Datuk Wan Saifulruddin Wan Jan to the Rights and Privileges Committee over his statements that a court case against him could be dropped.
Azalina said the motion to refer him to the committee was to determine whether the statements made by Wan Saifulruddin were misleading to the House and damaged the interests of the parties involved in the case. “That this august House takes seriously the statements by the Member of Parliament for Tasek Gelugor which implicitly claimed that there are individuals purportedly acting on behalf of the government who can manipulate the dismissal or withdrawal of the charges against the Member of Parliament for Tasek Gelugor.
He added that the motion was not intended to punish the MP concerned but rather a fair process to determine if there was an element of sub judice in his debate.
