Sabah MCA lodges report against Thomas over letter to Sulu heirs


KOTA KINABALU: Sabah MCA has lodged a police report against former attorney general Tan Sri Tommy Thomas over a 2019 letter he sent to lawyers representing heirs of the defunct Sulu Sultanate.

In a statement, Sabah MCA said the letter from a Malaysian AG to the Sulu heirs’ lawyers had put Malaysia’s sovereignty at risk by triggering the Paris Arbitration Court’s US$14.92bil (RM66.4bil) award in the claimants’ favour.
