Malaysia's top cop, Datuk Seri Mohd Khalid Ismail, energized investigators after notes from a secret judicial meeting appeared on social media. The police chief said his officers would track down anyone who leaked classified information from the Judicial Appointments Commission gathering. Authorities plan to bring witnesses in for questioning as they pursue leads about the breach of confidential documents. Khalid warned citizens against sharing any materials marked as restricted and promised strict consequences for rule breakers. The investigation targets both internal government leaks and widespread social media sharing networks.
Communications Minister Datuk Fahmi Fadzil revealed that Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim plans to discuss the scandal during upcoming cabinet meetings. Someone posted parts of the May meeting minutes from the judicial commission on various online platforms. Reddit moderators removed the original post, but screenshots continued to spread rapidly across Facebook and X. The leaked documents appeared shortly after corruption allegations surfaced about efforts to influence new judge selections. Nine ruling party members have already called for a Royal Commission investigation into the judicial appointment controversy.
