Anwar and Karpal to continue as MPs

PARLIAMENT: AT THE DEWAN RAKYAT

DATUK Seri Anwar Ibrahim (PKR-Permatang Pauh) and Karpal Singh (DAP-Bukit Gelugor) will continue as MPs until a judgment is made on the appeals against the sentences meted out to them. 

"Seeing that both MPs have filed appeals in the higher courts, their fate has yet to be decided. Hence, their parliamentary status will remain," said Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia.
