Deputy Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob has hit back at critics who claim that those standing by embattled Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin are committing treason against the Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

Instead, he suggests that those trying to topple the government before a vote of confidence is held in the Dewan Rakyat are the treasonous ones.

This is as the king had assented to Muhyiddin going through a vote of confidence in September, he said.
