Thomas: Sanctioning Riza Aziz deal would’ve betrayed PM, Harapan’s trust

Former attorney-general Tommy Thomas has reiterated that he never sanctioned the settlement deal with film producer Riza Aziz as he would have betrayed the trust of the prime minister and the Pakatan Harapan government by doing so.

This was in response to his successor Idrus Harun who said yesterday that he acted upon advice that Thomas had agreed to the settlement terms “in principle”.
