Controversy

Alleged vaping in the Dewan Rakyat

On 19 September 2023, PN MPs staged a walkout from the Dewan Rakyat chamber as a sign of protest against the decision of the Speaker of the Dewan Rakyat, Johari Abdul in not demanding Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim to apologise for his comments on the Putrajaya MP, Radzi Jidin. During the walkout, he was photographed by the photographer of Prime Minister Anwar allegedly vaping while still being in the chamber. He strongly denied the allegations and claiming he was holding a pen in his mouth.[4] He also filed a police report against the photographer for accusing him of vaping in Dewan Rakyat.[5]
