MP claims agents for 'number one' harassing Sabah reps to support PN

Malaysiakini

PARLIAMENT | A Sabah MP today read out text messages that purportedly proves that efforts are ongoing to entice state representatives to support Perikatan Nasional.
Azis Jamman (Warisan-Sepanggar) said the messages were sent to Kota Belud MP Isnaraissah Munirah Majilis, and that a police report had been lodged over the matter.
The text message read: "I have been instructed by number one to get in touch with you. Can we talk? I have an offer.
"YB, Sabah is about to change hands. Don't waste the golden opportunity. Take my offer meet me today, I'm in Kuala Lumpur."
Azis did not disclose who the message was from, or who "number one" referred to.
"I hope the Home Minister will investigate this matter. This is harassment and an attempt to buy and bribe (lawmakers), and stern action must be taken," he said.
He also said there were other cases of Sabah elected representatives being approached and offered money to defect.
Speculation is rife that former Umno Sabah chief Musa Aman is planning a coup to retake the Sabah state government.
