PKR supreme council member Johari Abdul has dismissed claims by a pro-Umno blogger that he had tried to solicit money in return for convincing opposition MPs to view the sex video allegedly involving Anwar Ibrahim.
"My conscience is clear," said Johari, who is also the Sungai Petani MP, when met at the Parliament lobby today.
Johari was today accused by the Papagomo blog of attempting to solicit RM100,000 as a "lubrication fee" to take on the task.
The blogger also accused him of attempting to solicit RM1 million for every MP he managed to persuade to watch the video.
Papagomo did not provide evidence of this claim but he did provide a video clip (left) in the blog which depicts Johari watching the sex video with the Datuk T group in the background.
Johari was seen joking with the Datuk T group and smiling throughout the two minute clip.
It is believed that this video clip was recorded on March 21 at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur, the same day the Datuk T group screen the video to senior journalists at the Carcosa Seri Negara hotel.
Datuk T is a monicker for a group which comprise of businessperson Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, former Malacca Chief Minister Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik and Shuaib Abdul Lazim.
Asked why he seemed so composed during the screening, Johari explained that he was “relaxed” because he felt that something was amiss.
“I was suspected I was being recorded that is why I smiled more often than not,” explained Johari.
Furthermore, Johari said he had known Rahim since his Umno days and that Shuib was his uncle.
“I'm an MP lah how should I react? Should I cry or throw tantrum? (I can't walk into the room) as if I'm looking for a fight,” he replied casually.
