KUALA LUMPUR: Following continued criticism over Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi's court decision, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has reiterated that he does not have the power to interfere in the case.
"If I had the power, I would have delayed the decision after all the by-elections were done," said the Prime Minister of the twin by-elections in Johor on Saturday (Sept 9) and an upcoming one in Pahang," he told reporters after Friday prayers here in response to allegations that he had something to do with how the AGC conducted Ahmad Zahid's corruption case.
