Taufik: Chairs were thrown at me for asking Dr M about Memali



A Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia (Bersatu) Youth member claimed that chairs were thrown at him and not Dr Mahathir Mohamad during Sunday's "Nothing to Hide 2" forum.
According to Mohd Taufik Abas, this happened because he had asked the former premier about the Memali incident in Kedah.
"I was asking the question when suddenly, chairs flew towards me. If you look at the video of the event, the chairs were far away from Tun (Mahathir), they would not have hurt him.
"And some of the organisers, dressed in Armada (the Bersatu Youth wing) shirts, threw chairs from above (the first level of the hall)," he claimed during a press conference in Kuala Lumpur.

This contradicts the opposition's version that chairs, flares and slippers were hurled at Mahathir. Pakatan Harapan has blamed Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak and Umno for the incident.
Yesterday, another Bersatu member claimed that the chairs were aimed at him to prevent him from asking tough questions at the forum.
Meanwhile, Taufik pressed for action to be taken against the organisers of the forum for failing to ensure the audience's safety.
