Rashdan claimed the information he had was “supported by documents”. He also said he was not associated with any political party or NGO.
In December 2022, Malaysiakini quoted Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim as implying that PN’s funds for its election campaign partly came from gaming companies, particularly those that took part in “special draws” for 4D numbers.
Anwar’s deputy, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, reportedly echoed the prime minister’s statement and claimed he was confident the “other side” had gained funds from the gaming companies.
On May 25, law and institutional reform minister Azalina Othman Said told the Dewan Rakyat MACC had conducted a detailed study regarding the information provided on the allegation, but found it to be “too general”.
Subsequently, no investigation papers were opened into the matter, she said.
