Former Perlis menteri besar Azlan Man will be charged again at the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court tomorrow with five counts of money laundering.

Azlan, 64, will face charges under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001.

Meanwhile, the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission said that it had received permission to prosecute a former menteri besar tomorrow.

Yesterday, Azlan pleaded not guilty at the Kangar Sessions Court to five counts of submitting false overseas travel claims worth more than RM1.18 million between 2013 and 2017.

Azlan was Pauh assemblyman from 2013 to 2018, before winning the Bintong state seat in 2018. He lost the seat at the last general election.

He was Perlis menteri besar from 2013 to 2022 and failed to defend his post as Umno Kangar division chief at the party recent election.
