00:00 Perekatan National Chairman Muhyiddin Yassin has every right to question the government's

00:06 treatment of the controversy over the purported supplementary order on Najib Razak's house

00:11 arrest.

00:12 This is what former Law Minister Zaid Ibrahim had to say, adding that it was pathetic to

00:17 suggest that the disappearance of Muhyiddin's son-in-law, Adlan Burhan, removed the former

00:22 Prime Minister's moral standing to question the matter.

00:25 Zaid was responding to government spokesman Fahmy Fazil, who said yesterday that Muhyiddin

00:30 had no moral standing to speak on the matter.

00:33 Fahmy said Muhyiddin should first set a good example by getting Adlan, who was allegedly

00:37 on the run, to return to Malaysia instead.

00:41 Muhyiddin had criticised Anwar's refusal to engage in the controversy over the supplementary

00:45 order from the former Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

00:48 He said the Prime Minister must explain and resolve the situation, as government leaders

00:53 appeared to be divided on the issue.

00:56 Zaid criticised what he called the government's hide-and-seek approach to the matter, saying

01:00 respect for the rulers should warrant prompt action on their decrees.

01:05 He said the government's mishandling of the issue has amounted to a challenge of the

01:08 King's absolute prerogative to issue a pardon, as well as that of the Malay rulers.

01:15 Reiterating that it was the government's responsibility to provide answers, Zaid said

01:19 the Prime Minister should take the initiative to refer the matter to the Attorney-General

01:23 for determination, who should then inform the public about the status of the decree.
