BUTTERWORTH, PENANG - Former Penang chief minister Lim Guan Eng is to be charged for the third time on Tuesday under the Anti-Money Laundering and Anti-Terrorism Financing Act over a land deal.
The 59-year-old was last week arrested and charged in Kuala Lumpur by the country's anti-corruption body with soliciting a bribe based on future profits for the same project.The Democratic Action Party opposition politician has claimed that the corruption charges against him are a form of political persecution.
But the investigation against Lim picked up pace only recently, months after the Pakatan Harapan administration lost federal power to the Perikatan Nasional following a series of defections.
