KUALA LUMPUR -- Malaysia's Anti-Corruption Commission on Thursday arrested former Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin on corruption and money-laundering charges.
Muhyiddin, who is also president of Bersatu, a member of a leading opposition coalition, is the second former prime minister to be charged. The first was Najib Razak, who is serving a 12-year jail term for corruption in connection with the SRC International and 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) scandal.
