SEREMBAN: The National Felda Settler Children’s Association (Anak) has asked the Yang Dipertuan Agong to interfere in the controversy surrounding a video that allegedly shows opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim engaging in unlawful sex.
The association’s president, Mazlan Aliman, said the King should use his authority as the nation’s head of Islam to put a stop to such slanders because they could mislead Muslims.
He made the call outside the Seremban police headquarters after lodging a report against Shazryl Eskay Abdullah and other confessed promoters of the video, accusing them of violating the Censorship Act and the Penal Code. Accompanying him was Negeri Sembilan PAS commissioner Zulkefly Mohamad Omar.
“This is a conspiracy to humiliate Anwar Ibrahim and his family,” he told reporters. “The behavior of the three individuals who showed the video to the media is totally against the teachings of Islam.
“The police also must act against Shazryl for trying to blackmail Anwar and his wife to force them to step down as leaders of PKR.”
Mazlan also took former Malacca chief minister Abdul Rahim Tamby Chik to task, accusing him of abusing his current position as Risda chairman to book the hotel room where the video was shown to media representatives.
“He has admitted that he booked the room under the name of Risda,” he said.
“This is clearly an abuse of power. If he wants to play politics, then he should quit as the chairman of Risda.”
In his report, Mazlan also told the police to ascertain whether de facto law minister Mohd Nazri Aziz had broken the law for stating that the screening of the video to the media was legal. - FMT
