Malaysia Closes DPM’s Graft Case Ahead of Key Party Meeting

Malaysia’s Attorney General’s Chambers said it would take no further action against Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi in relation to his graft case, citing insufficient evidence to prosecute him.

“This decision brings the case to an end, in line with the powers and discretion of the Attorney General in line with the Federal Constitution and related laws,” the AGC said in a statement Thursday.
