Perkasa asks Mat Sabu to retract statement

Malay right-wing group Perkasa has asked PAS deputy president Mohamad Sabu to retract his alleged statement glorifying communist terrorists and running down the security forces.

NONEIts president, Ibrahim Ali, said the speech delivered by Mohamad Sabu, popularly known as Mat Sabu, in Tasek Gelugor, Penang, on Aug 21 was confusing and seen as an attempt to change the country's history.

"Mohamad Sabu need not be afraid or feel ashamed to retract his speech as that would not jeopardise his image as a leader," he said after the opening of the annual general meeting of Perkasa Terengganu in Kuala Terengganu today.

Mohamad Sabu had allegedly praised the communist terrorists who attacked the Bukit Kepong police station in 1950 and killed the 25 policemen and their families.

He had also allegedly belittled the struggles of freedom fighters Onn Jaafar and Tunku Abdul Rahman.

Ex-police officers outraged


Meanwhile, retired policemen who saw the bodies of their comrades killed in the Bukit Kepong tragedy are angry over the alleged claim by Mat Sabu.

One of them, Ahmad Md Arif, 80, said that at that time he and 30 others from the Muar police station were rushed to the Bukit Kepong police station to back up their colleagues who came under the attack of communist terrorists led by Mat Indera.

"I was saddened when I saw the bodies of my comrades, but I was fired up to seek out Mat Indera.

"I could not accept it when he (Mohamad Sabu) praised Mat Indera as a national hero because I know the actual story, having personally seen the bodies of the policemen who died defending the station," he said.

"I was extremely happy when Mat Indera was caught, and my anger at what he had done has never abated," said Ahmad who joined the police force in 1949.

Ahmad, who is from Kedah, advised youths not to be duped by irresponsible quarters who sought to change the history of the country.

Gurdail Singh Karpal Singh, 79, also an ex-policeman, suggested legal action against Mohamad Sabu for having offended ex-policemen and the families of policemen killed during the communist insurgency.
