Bung Moktar was among two MP asked to leave the August hall after they refused to heed Mohd Rashid's call not to interrupt proceedings.

KUALA LUMPUR: Controversial Kinabatangan lawmaker Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin has managed to escape parliamentary punishment for using the F-word in the Dewan Rakyat two months ago, after he issued an apology.

The motion to cite the Barisan Nasional MP to Parliament's Rights and Privileges Committee was withdrawn by Housing and Local Government Minister Zuraida Kamarudin after the apology was made in the House on Thursday (Oct 18).
