No directive has been issued by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim for Human Resources Minister V Sivakumar to be relieved from his post following the arrest of his officers, says DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke.

"So far, there has been no such instruction from the prime minister for Sivakumar to take leave," the transport minister said at a press conference in Putrajaya today.

Yesterday, Sivakumar who is also the Batu Gajah MP, was present at the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) headquarters in Putrajaya to give his statement on the case believed to be related to foreign worker recruitment contracts.

Loke said MACC was still investigating the case.

"We (DAP) are monitoring the development of the case," he said.
