Several Umno leaders being monitored: Ku Nan

Kuala Lumpur: "Six or seven" Umno leaders are being monitored as they are seen as trying to bad-mouth the party and government, said Umno Secretary-General Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor."If action must be taken against them, we will submit an investigation paper to the Disciplinary Board as we do not have the power to impose any action against them," he told reporters here Monday.

He refused to name the leaders concerned. Tengku Adnan also urged former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad not to meddle in the government's administration of the country.

He said the government did not need outsiders to interfere in every issue relating to the country's administration as it had its own way of dealing with them.

"Dr Mahathir is finished (retired)... enough is enough. Let the government resolve the problems. However, I respect his views.
