Muhyiddin Yassin, former Prime Minister of Malaysia, has been charged with sedition for allegedly insulting the previous king during an August election campaign rally.
During the rally, Muhyiddin questioned why the then-King did not invite him to be prime minister, stating he had sufficient support among lawmakers.
The monarchy in Malaysia, while largely ceremonial, holds deep respect among ethnic Malays, who make up more than half of the population.
Muhyiddin denied the accusations, claiming his remarks were factual, while the king's son labeled them dangerous, indicating potential for division among people.
