The spotlight has fallen on 27-year-old Haziq Abdullah Abdul Aziz after his confession that he was filmed engaging in sexual acts with a man resembling a cabinet minister.
Haziq is currently the senior private secretary to Deputy Primary Industries Minister Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin.
His appointment as Shamsul's aide on Jan 19 is as far back as his current social media accounts go.
However, the youth has had a long history with PKR. While in Universiti Malaya, he was the founder and president of PKR's student wing, Mahasiswa Keadilan, back in 2012 and was still holding the position in 2014.
Not much is publicly known about his activities between 2014 and 2018.
A source told Malaysiakini that Haziq had expressed an intention to quit PKR sometime in 2016.
However, PKR secretary-general Saifuddin Nasution said the party never received a letter from Haziq on leaving the party.
"There was no record that he ever sent a resignation later... so his name stayed in party membership (roll)," Saifuddin said when contacted.
Haziq then went on to become an intern for then minister in the Prime Minister's Department Nancy Shukri. One source close to him said he joined Nancy in 2017.
He also appeared to be part of Nancy's election team. A tweet by the Batang Sadong MP on May 1, 2018 showed Haziq wearing a "Kamek Milih Nancy" (I choose Nancy) T-shirt, which also had the words #teamnancyshukri on it.
Saifuddin said no PKR member lodged a complaint with the party over Haziq's activities with Nancy, thus no action was taken against him.
Haziq returned to the PKR fold after the 14th general election, and was later elected the Santubong division youth chief.
During the party election, he had backed Najwan Halimi.
Haziq posted his confession on the sex video on Facebook early this morning.
In his confession, he also urged the MACC to investigate the senior PKR leader he was said to be in bed with, for alleged corruption and claimed that the latter was unfit to be a leader.
Malaysiakini is withholding the name of the minister pending his response to our questions.
Yesterday, Malaysiakini reported that the video clip was systematically sent to members of the media and political party members.
Journalists were added into various WhatsApp groups in which the video was uploaded.
