alaysian Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad has denied knowledge of the spread of a sex video and several lewd photos, purportedly of a Cabinet minister.
“I do not know anything. I have just heard, I would have to read up on it.
“If you are willing to do a briefing for me, that would be good,” said the prime minister, replying to a question by a reporter.
He was speaking at a press conference after chairing the Economic Action Council (EAC) meeting at his office here.
In attendance at the press conference were Economic Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali, Domestic Trade, Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, Agriculture and Agro-Based Minister Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub and EAC member Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz.
