PETALING JAYA:

A police investigation into claims by a leader on unaudited contributions to a division found that the issue revolved around internal auditing, the home minister said.

Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said it was also related to issues with the administration of the party.

He said this in a written parliamentary reply to Fadhli Shaari (PN-Pasir Mas), who wanted an update on an investigation into a viral video clip featuring a man believed to be the Wangsa Maju division chief.

In May, a video, which surfaced on several social media platforms, appears to show Wangsa Maju division chief Lai Chen Heng commenting on financial contributions to the division from a prominent businessman.

He allegedly referred to them as “unaudited funds” associated with a senior political leader.

But Lai maintained that the clip had been selectively edited and circulated to smear his image.

In April, he had denied claims that the division’s 2024 financial statements had been manipulated.

He said such claims were baseless and politically motivated, adding that the financial report presented during the division’s annual general meeting on March 1 did not receive any objections.
