PUTRAJAYA, July 9 — The prime minister and deputy prime minister are considered as part of the administration and therefore bound to the country’s anti-corruption laws, Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad said today.
The prime minister said that all Cabinet ministers and lawmakers representing the ruling government will also be counted, following a Federal Court ruling declaring ousted Datuk Seri Najib Razak was not a public officer.
“There was a decision before that the prime minister and deputy prime minister are not part of the administration but we have decided they will be regarded as part of administration along with Cabinet members and MPs of the ruling party.”
“They will not be spared from the law if they have assets that cannot be justified. They all have to declare their assets and income,” Dr Mahathir told the media after chairing a special Cabinet committee on anti-corruption here.
