Muhammad Rafique said, Aman Palestine also urged Members of Parliament, whether government or opposition, to raise the issue in the Dewan Rakyat.

In addition, the media also reported that the MACC seized four gold bars in a series of raids at the Aman Palestine office on November 24. The 999.9 graded gold bars each weighed one kilogram and the other confiscated items were three laptops and four mobile phones.
Aman Palestine and the members of its Board of Directors are currently being investigated by the MACC. The first time the MACC came to the registered premises was on October 17 and no raids or arrests were made at that time.
