| Johor DAP leader under probe over party funds Posted: 17 Sep 2011 05:19 AM PDT KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The DAP disciplinary committee is to investigate a Bakri division leader in Johor over alleged misappropriation of funds amounting to RM45,000. Committee chairman Tan Kok Wai told Bernama that two DAP branches in the state lodged a report with the committee on the matter two weeks ago. "We (the disciplinary committee) will meet this Friday to look into the allegation. Those involved have been notified to appear before the committee," he said. An allegation surfaced in recent weeks through email that a DAP leader in Bakri had misappropriated party funds collected over the past four years. According to the allegation, the leader had transferred the funds into a company account and used the money to purchase a four-wheel-drive vehicle which was not registered in the party's name.
