Ex-Malaysia PM, Muhyiddin Yassin, charged with corruption over Covid spending

Malaysia's former prime minister who led during the height of the pandemic has been charged with corruption - a move that ratchets up already bitter political tensions.

Muhyiddin Yassin, 75, was arrested just months after losing an election to PM Anwar Ibrahim in November.

The former PM has been accused of bribery and money laundering through his government's Covid spending fund.

He rejects the allegations, which his supporters say are politically driven.

The criminal case aimed at the leader of the conservative opposition alliance comes ahead of crucial state elections in July.

Mr Muhyiddin is now the second former Malaysian prime minister to face corruption charges, after Najib Razak was jailed to 12 years for corruption involving the state's 1MDB investment firm.
