Beskrivelse

KiniNews is now also available on Spotify and Apple podcasts.[KiniNews] Rafizi Ramli and Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad have submitted their formal letters to Dewan Rakyat speaker Johari Abdul, notifying him of their resignations as MPs for their respective constituencies in Pandan and Setiawangsa.The duo said that their resignations take effect today."The right and honourable course of action is to return the mandate to the constituents of Pandan and Setiawangsa, given that we were elected on a Pakatan Harapan ticket at the last general election," they said.Meanwhile, in a separate story, PKR secretary-general Fuziah Salleh claimed to have time-stamped evidence that Rafizi and Nik Nazmi had already joined Parti Bersama Malaysia (Bersama) on Saturday, thereby violating their 2022 election bond with PKR.She said the evidence refuted the duo's planned timeline to avoid paying PKR RM10 million in penalties each.___________________Support independent media, subscribe to Malaysiakini.com - https://membership.malaysiakini.com/membership/start?internal_source=kinitv
