KUALA LUMPUR: PKR vice-president Datuk Seri R. Ramanan has questioned Datuk Seri Rafizi Ramli's claims that he received RM9.5 million from businessman Victor Chin to resolve a corporate mafia issue.

Ramanan said it had been seven months since the allegation was made, but Rafizi had yet to present any evidence.

He also criticised Rafizi for allegedly making unsubstantiated statements and subsequently seeking public donations to cover legal costs after losing court cases.

"I have not taken any action so far. After losing in court, he collects donations from the public, asking them to help him avoid bankruptcy.
