A Gerakan leader has questioned DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang's call for Johor Menteri Besar Khaled Nordin to go on leave pending a corruption investigation into land matters in the state.

The same rule must apply to Lim's son, Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, Gerakan Youth chief Tan Keng Liang said today.

“What about your son? Why he doesn't go on leave despite corruption trial in court? How?” Tan tweeted.

Last June, Guan Eng was charged with two counts of corruption, for which he claimed trial and blamed his political rivals.
