Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad Questions Authorities' Certainty on Flight Incident

Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad has publicly questioned the certainty expressed by local authorities regarding the absence of foul play in the recent flight he was scheduled to take to Langkawi. He stated that the authorities' definitive pronouncements were made without direct personal observation of the event. Dr Mahathir also indicated he is unconcerned about potential investigation under fake news legislation concerning the alleged flight sabotage.
Lack of Direct Observation Cited

Dr Mahathir articulated his skepticism during a ceramah attended by approximately 2,000 individuals in PPR Kerinchi. He challenged the basis of the authorities' conclusions, stating, "How can they be so sure as to say it didn’t happen? None of them went to see it for themselves." He urged for thorough fact-checking before definitive statements are made.
Dismissal of Fake News Law Concerns

Regarding the ongoing scrutiny of the alleged flight sabotage incident, Dr Mahathir conveyed a lack of apprehension about being investigated under the fake news law. He suggested that any potential arrest might even galvanise greater public support, stating, "I know if I am arrested more people will come out to vote." This sentiment was met with significant applause from the assembled crowd.
Criticism of Deputy Prime Minister's Claims

Furthermore, Dr Mahathir addressed remarks made by caretaker deputy prime minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi. Hamidi had alleged that opposition parties were planning to have Dr Mahathir admitted to a hospital during the election period to garner sympathy votes. Dr Mahathir dismissed these claims as "fake news," asserting his own popularity and the lack of need for such tactics, pointing to the substantial public turnout at the ceramah as evidence of support.
