Rafizi speculates on Pandan Move

Twelve years after orchestrating the Kajang Move, Pandan MP Rafizi Ramli speculates that PKR may be planning to stage a similar manoeuvre against him.

Rafizi believes PKR is plotting to get him disqualified as an MP so that Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz can take his place.

This is despite the deadline for by-elections having passed in December.

Rafizi, however, said that it wouldn’t surprise him if they tried to stage such a contest anyway. The disgruntled former PKR deputy president has said before that he plans to defend the Pandan seat in the next general election, but not on a PKR ticket.

What happened to police brutality probes?

Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng wants an update on two cases of alleged police brutality last year, which were supposed to have been referred to the Attorney-General’s Chambers for further action in December 2025.

One of the cases was the alleged police killings of three men in cold blood in Durian Tunggal, Malacca.

The second case involved police arresting and allegedly beating and burning a man, only for officers to admit later that they had detained the wrong person.
