Parti Gagasan Rakyat Sabah (PGRS) deputy president Masidi Manjun today said that the prosecution of two state assemblypersons linked to the mining licences scandal should not be viewed through a political lens.

According to The Star, the Sabah finance minister, who had also been implicated in the corruption case, stressed that upholding the rule of law and the presumption of innocence must precede any perceived political ramifications.
