Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng was first to arrive at 10am and is expected to be followed by former education minister Maszlee Malik and Lembah Pantai MP Fahmi Fadzil.

Meanwhile, Damansara MP Tony Pua is scheduled to give his statement at 11am, and Segambut’s Hannah Yeoh and former youth and sports minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman are expected to arrive at 2.30pm.

Other MPs who are expected to give their statements today are Kasthuri Patto (Batu Kawan) and Fuziah Salleh (Kuantan).

The gathering at Dataran Merdeka was followed by an attempted march to Parliament to call for Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin and his Cabinet to resign.

Last night, Inspector-General of Police Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said 206 police reports had been lodged nationwide over the gathering.

He said police were investigating the gathering under Section 269 of the Penal Code for a negligent act that may likely spread an infection of any disease dangerous to life, and the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012.

When met by reporters outside the station, Lim claimed that the opposition MPs were simply making their way to Parliament before being stopped by the police.

Pointing to the gathering of several government leaders at Muhyiddin’s house yesterday, he said they were the ones who were actually holding gatherings.

“The one who’s really holding gatherings is the prime minister … last night at his house. This investigation is wasting our time,” he said before heading in to give his statement.

They are also being probed for a breach of Regulations 9 and 10 of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Measures within Infected Local Areas) Regulations (National Recovery Plan) 2021.
