PKR has denied that it will hold a ‘thankgiving’ ceremony as well as prayers for ‘martyred’ DAP lawmaker Karpal Singh at PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim’s home tomorrow.
This followed two widely circulated e-posters promoting the event online, bearing the logo of Anwar’s fan club, the Anwar Ibrahim Club (AIC).
“Example of Umno lies,” Anwar tweeted when asked about the event said to be prayers for “syuhadah (martyr) Karpal”.
The poster features Anwar raising his hand in prayer behind Karpal’s image, and advertises the event ‘Majlis tahlil syuhadah Karpal’ (prayers for martyr Karpal) at Anwar’s Bukit Segambut home tomorrow night.
An exact copy of the poster was also circulated yesterday, except the caption reads: ‘Majlis kesyukuran mendiang Karpal’(Thanksgiving ceremony for the late Karpal).
“We deny this libelous poster said to be from AIC... Thursday’s event is only to pray for safety and Allah’s protection for Anwar and his family,” the AIC Facebook page reads.
Karpal, who would have turned 74 on June 28, was killed in a road accident last week.
The Bukit Gelugor MP was also Anwar’s lead counsel in the Sodomy II case, which is pending final appeal at the Federal Court.
