Uncertainty over Ali Rustam's bid for Umno No. 2 post

PETALING JAYA: Uncertainty has clouded Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam’s bid for the Umno deputy presidency following speculation that he is under investigation for money politics by the party’s Disciplinary Board.
There has been talk for days that Mohd Ali, 59, who is said to be doing well in the three-man contest, is being investigated but the Disciplinary Board has refused to comment.
Besides the Malacca Chief Minister, party insiders said several other leading candidates for various top Umno posts had also been hauled up by Board.
The Disciplinary Board is scheduled to hold a press conference at 4pm Tuesday while the Umno management committee headed by deputy president Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak is also expected to meet on the matter.

tunku : is this just rumours or facts ? for sure we will know it by 4pm today when the disciplinary action committee will make a press conference regarding all these issues. we hope the disciplinary action committee will take stern action against those who uses money/gift to gain vote.this is high time for umno to clean up the messes within. also there's rumours saying that some of the leaders said that if they are charged with money politics they will quit umno.who are these people? umno should put red carpet for them to leave the party.
