Only the court can free an accused, ex-MACC chief tells Dr M

A former MACC top official has taken a swipe at Dr Mahathir Mohamad over the latter's claim that Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin will ensure six Perikatan Nasional MPs are cleared of their ongoing corruption charges.

Taking to Twitter, MACC's former chief commissioner Dzulkifli Ahmad said Mahathir's claim is tantamount to contempt of the judiciary.
