[KiniNews] One of the two lawyers named in a police report, which led to an investigation into an alleged attempt to topple the government, has rubbished the claims, describing them as the “mother of all lies”.

Lawyer Nizamuddin Hamid said his client, Na’imah Abdul Khalid, had never given her legal team such instructions.

“Throughout our duties as lawyers for Na’imah, there was absolutely no discussion or instructions given to us to overthrow the government or undermine parliamentary democracy," he told reporters when met at the Kuala Lumpur High Court today.

Meanwhile, in a separate story, a former aide to ex-economy minister Rafizi Ramli expressed frustration after the MACC issued a notice seeking him out to facilitate investigations into allegations linked to Rafizi.

The investigation centres on the government's RM1.1 billion deal with British semiconductor giant Arm Holdings.

In a response later, Chai said that the investigation is politically motivated, designed to construct a narrative that Rafizi misappropriated public funds with Chai serving as a local facilitator - a role he likened to that of fugitive financier Jho Low.
