Dr M plans to head to Sabah for snap polls, wants to see defectors punished

Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad confirmed that he would head to Sabah as the state gears up for a snap election.

Mahathir said the 13 assemblypersons who defected to the opposition, prompting Chief Minister Shafie Apdal to dissolve the state assembly in a bid to thwart off the coup attempt, would be punished.
