Defence Minister Mohamad Sabu is pursuing legal recourse against social media users who claimed he had sidestepped accountability relating to a fertiliser supply investigation in the northern state of Kedah. The minister has directed his legal team to issue demand letters to the account holders behind the allegations. The move marks an escalation in response to online accusations that Sabu had escaped consequences connected to the probe. Details regarding the specific allegations and the timeline of the fertiliser investigation remain unclear. The legal action represents an attempt to address what the minister's camp views as defamatory claims circulating on social platforms.
