Rais Yatim expected to be charged in Ayer Keroh court tomorrow

FORMER Dewan Negara president Tan Sri Rais Yatim is expected to be charged at the Ayer Keroh Sessions Court in Melaka tomorrow.

A check of the e-Kehakiman portal showed Rais listed for proceedings before Judge Raja Noor Adilla Raja Mahyaldin at 9 am, while Rais has also reportedly confirmed the matter when contacted by the media.

A highly-placed source had also confirmed it.

This is after Rais reportedly attended a ceremony proclaiming Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja'afar as the 12th Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan at a hotel in Alor Gajah, Melaka, on June 5.

He later told the media that the process had been carried out according to state customs.

The Dewan Keadilan dan Undang later affirmed that Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir remained the legitimate Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negeri Sembilan and that there was no vacancy in the position. – September 24, 2026
