2 PKR Perak Excos Arrested!

NEWS FLASH!

A while back I just came back from lunch and saw this on Malaysian Insider headlines:

TWO PKR Perak Excos Arrested For Corruption

so, I immediately go to the Star Online for MSM scoop (since it is about the others ma...)

Two Perak Exco Members Arrested by ACA

Apparently 3 of the 6 people arrested took RM100K as kickback to speed up approval of housing projects. Tsk, tsk... ACA is suddenly so efficient and coincidentally, PKR is also campaigning in Permatang Pauh by-election.

I wonder...

UPDATE @ 3:08 PM

Well, the link above is no longer accessible and instead replaced with the following:

PKR exco members arrested, PKR claims a set up by BN

Apparently, this is could be a BN plan to take over Perak state government.

Hmm, I wonder...

MSM will really blow this out of proportion. but i have to say... the fact that they are set up... means they have been tempted and were not strong enough.

dear zewt,

regardless of whether they are from BN or PR or none of the coalitions, so long as they are on the take, they should be charged in court.

but ACCA must be prepared to come up with credible and irrefutable evidences.
