KUALA KUBU BARU: Perlis Menteri Besar Mohd Shukri Ramli has not been arrested by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commision (MACC) and was only present at its headquarters to assist in investigations, said Perikatan Nasional's Muhammad Hilman Idham. 

The Gombak Setia state assemblyman said PN will cooperate fully with enforcement agencies in any investigations involving their party leaders.

His statement follows local media reports claiming that the MACC arrested Shukri this morning due to allegations of abuse of power.

"Based on the preliminary information, the Perlis Menteri Besar is currently at the MACC headquarters assisting with the investigation. Media reports also quoted MACC commissioner Tan Sri Azam Baki, who mentioned the possibility of arrests.

"This is a legal process, and PN respects the legal system; we will allow all processes to proceed before making any decisions at the party level.

"I want to emphasise that any leaders within PN (who are implicated), we will cooperate with all enforcement agencies for all investigations, so that the truth can be revealed," he told the New Straits Times today.
