DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng has criticised the home minister for singling out DAP for its continued stand in opposing the 1MDB scandal and for its queries on the RM2.6 billion donation in Prime Minister Najib Razak’s private bank accounts.

Lim said the Registrar of Societies can investigate the party for as long and as many times as it wants, but he urged that this not be 'an exercise of victimisation and persecution against the DAP'.
