KUALA LUMPUR — Former Malaysian prime minister Muhyiddin Yassin will be charged with corruption-related offenses on Friday, the chief of the country's anti-graft agency told Reuters. The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) chief, Azam Baki, did not give further details, but said the agency will issue a statement later on Thursday. Muhyiddin, who was prime minister for 17 months between 2020 and 2021, arrived at the MACC offices on Thursday morning for questioning. Muhyiddin and his party have faced graft investigations since losing to Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in a tightly contested election in November.
