The Telegraph also reports Justice Minister Mr Malik - who claimed the most expenses of all 646 MPs in 2007 - claimed a maximum of £66,827 allowances over three years for his second home in London.
It reports he claimed £2,500 for a cinema system, later reduced by half by the fees office.
He claimed £65 for a court summons for council tax non-payment but he repaid this on Thursday.
Mr Malik said the report's suggestion he paid only £100 a week in rent on his "main home" in his Dewsbury constituency was a "fabrication".
He said the house was where he spent most of his time so it was legitimate to claim for the second home in London.
