MELAKA, Nov 13 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has denied allegations that he or the government had acted against the wishes of His Majesty Sultan Ibrahim, King of Malaysia over the issue of implementing house arrest for former Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

The Pakatan Harapan (PH) chairman said his administration had always upheld the constitutional monarchy system and adhered to established legal processes.

Anwar said the decision to place him under house arrest did not fall within his authority as Prime Minister, while the Attorney-General’s decision to bring the matter to court aligned with his responsibility to uphold the rule of law.

“They accused me of being disloyal to the King. I am the Prime Minister, and the King called me this afternoon. We have a good relationship.
