KOTA KINABALU (March 25): Sabah police have yet to receive any official information regarding claims that Parti Kesejahteraan Demokratik Masyarakat (KDM) president Datuk Peter Anthony has been released on parole. Sabah police commissioner Datuk Jauteh Dikun said matters related to parole fall under the jurisdiction of the Prisons Department, not the police. No comment, as we have not received any official notice,” he told reporters at the launch of the Sabah Police Gallery here on Wednesday. He remained subject to the three-year sentence after the Court of Appeal rejected his review application against the conviction and sentence on Aug 20, 2025. He won the Melalap state seat in the 2018 general election and 2020 state election under a Parti Warisan ticket.
