In a statement today, Muhyiddin said the allegation, made in a viral video featuring Mahathir, was based purely on speculation and false information allegedly provided by irresponsible parties.
Muhyiddin stressed that he had never misappropriated party funds, adding that all contributions to the party are deposited into official party accounts managed transparently by the party’s treasurer-general.
He said Mahathir should have sought clarification from him before making such accusations publicly.
“In the many meetings I have had with him, he has never raised this matter with me in person,” Muhyiddin said.
He added that he felt compelled to clarify the issue to prevent damage to his reputation and to avoid the spread of slander.
Despite the allegation, he said he continued to respect Mahathir and supports his efforts to foster Malay unity.
“For that reason, I have no intention of taking legal action against Mahathir.
