Any public servant who breaches integrity rules will face action, says Saifuddin


PUTRAJAYA: Disciplinary action will be taken against public servants who commit integrity-related offences, says Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail.

“They are bound by the rules put in place.

“I can only speak in general that the principle applies to all. It doesn’t matter what your title is.

“There are rules, and the country has laws. If there are complaints (against any public servants), then due process will be conducted,” he said on Tuesday (April 22).
