Daim Zainuddin’s wife steps into spotlight amid Malaysia’s corruption probe against couple
While Naimah previously shunned the limelight like her husband, the 67-year-old has been staunchly defending themselves amid the corruption probe as Daim’s health has waned. Daim has lost an eye and become a wheelchair user, driving Naimah to advocate on his behalf.
Naimah has also been compared to Rosmah Mansor, the wife of former Prime Minister Najib Razak, who is facing corruption charges separate from her husband’s 1MDB-related crimes.
