Anti-Wan Azizah letter writer fears for his safety

Mohd Fareez Kamal Intidzam has lodged a police report at the Dang Wangi police station yesterday, asking for police protection for himself and his family against those who are looking for him.

PETALING JAYA: A former aide of PKR women chief Zuraida Kamaruddin is claiming that he is being “hunted down” by the party and its leaders after details of his letter which had called for the removal of PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail had become public.

Mohd Fareez Kamal Intidzam, 24, now wants the police to provide him with security as he feels his safety is at stake.

“I am being hunted down by certain people who I think are either supporters or people acting on behalf of Wan Azizah.

“Since the details of my letter became public, they had even managed to track me down to the hotel in which I was staying,” he said in a statement today.

Fareez has lodged a police report at the Dang Wangi police station yesterday, asking for police protection for himself and his family against those who are looking for him.

Last Thursday popular blogger Raja Petra Kamarudin posted in his website Malaysia-Today a handwritten letter purportedly by Fareez urging PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang to save the opposition pact from PKR president Wan Azizah and its vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar.

Fareez alleged in his letter that Wan Azizah and Nurul wanted to destroy his career as he was “close” to Anwar.

He also claimed to be working for Anwar as his private secretary for international affairs since 2008.

“The duo wants to eliminate anyone close to Anwar as they are jealous. As PAS president, only you (Hadi) can pressure Wan Azizah to quit her post before the 13th general election,” he said in his letter.

He also said that Wan Azizah’s departure would not make much difference because the former Permatang Pauh MP cannot contest for a parliamentary seat in the coming election anyway.

The letter was also copied to DAP chairman Karpal Singh.

In his statement today, Fareez said the disclosure of the letter had caused unhappiness to certain persons in PKR, especially to Wan Azizah.

“As I mentioned in the letter, she is deeply jealous of my relationship with Anwar Ibrahim…what is important now is my safety and that of my family.

He also added that he has not received any letter from PKR to terminate him or to charge him with any disciplinary misconduct.

“In fact both Wan Azizah and Anwar have not responded on my letter,” he said.

Reacting to the letter, Raja Petra raised a question if this letter was part of PKR deputy president Azmin Ali’s move to “finish off Wan Azizah and Nurul Izzah”.

“Or is this Sodomy 3 looming on the horizon, engineered by Azmin and gang to finish off Anwar Ibrahim instead?

“Anyway, this letter appears to be an attempt to bring down the entire Anwar clan — father, mother and daughter,” he said.
