- 9 years ago
The Heat, a news weekly, has been suspended indefinitely by the Home Ministry, believed to be over an article in its November edition on Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and his wife Rosmah Mansor.
Sources confirmed that the directive came from the Home Ministry, but the exact wording of the suspension letter was not revealed.
Last week, The Heat received a show-cause letter from the ministry, but the letter did not name the exact article that was offensive.
However, the article in question is believed to be its front page report titled 'All eyes on big spending PM Najib', which questioned the spending traits of the prime minister and his wife Rosmah Mansor.
