Gov't slams Anwar over NZ cover-up claims


Opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim's claims of cover-up in the New Zealand diplomat scandal is aimed at damaging the country's reputation, decried the government.

"Anwar Ibrahim's allegation in an interview to New Zealand media that there has been a cover-up is completely false.

"This is yet another attempt by the leader of the opposition to opportunistically damage Malaysia’s reputation for personal political gain," said an unnamed government spokesperson in a statement last night/

The spokesperson listed how the New Zealand government had "thanked" Malaysia for its cooperation over the Malaysian diplomat accused of sexual assault in Wellington.

However on Tuesday. the New Zealand government was reported revealing documents that purportedly showed the High Commission of Malaysia requesting thecharges be dropped.

The accused warrant officer Muhmmad Rizalman Ismail, a defence staff assistant, was arrested by New Zealand police on May 9, after he followed a 21-year-old woman home and allegedly assaulted her, purportedly with the intention to commit rape.

He was charged on May 10 for burglary and assault with intent to commit rape, both of which carry a maximum jail sentence of 10 years.

Yesterday Anwar was reported calling on Malaysia to send Rizalman back to New Zealand to face his charges.

The government has since decided to extradite Rizalman for trial.
