KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 26 (Bernama) -- Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today accepted the resignation of his Senior Political Secretary, Datuk Seri Shamsul Iskandar Mohd Akin.
In a statement, Anwar also thanked Shamsul Iskandar for his service.
“Regarding the allegations raised, I wish to stress that the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) is free to conduct an immediate investigation without any external interference.
“The MADANI Government remains committed to the principles of transparency and integrity, and will allow the investigation process to proceed according to the law,” he said.
Shamsul Iskandar announced his resignation yesterday.
The issue surfaced recently after former Economy Minister Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli urged the Prime Minister to take action, including a possible MACC investigation, over a letter of support issued by one of Anwar’s political secretaries.
