DAP's Tony Pua said the money could have been better used 'to help ordinary Malaysians'.PETALING JAYA: DAP’s Tony Pua has urged the authorities to audit the donations raised to help settle the RM50 million fine allowing former prime minister Najib Razak to serve the remainder of his corruption sentence under house arrest.
The former Damansara MP said an audit by Bank Negara Malaysia and the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission was vital to ensure the funds raised were legitimate and not laundered.
Earlier today, Umno said it had settled the RM50 million fine after collecting enough funds through a donation drive launched by the party in September.
Pua questioned Umno’s decision to settle the fine, arguing that the money could have been used to help ordinary Malaysians.
