Perkasa mob disrupts PAS ceramah
About 100 Perkasa members caused a ruckus when they tried to storm a ceramah attended by Mat Sabu.
(Free Malaysia Today) – A ceramah organised by PAS was briefly disrupted last night when about 100 Perkasa supporters tried to storm the site where party deputy president Mohamad Sabu was delivering his speech.
One PAS supporter was hit in the head with a stone and another suffered a broken nose in the scuffle. Both were sent to a nearby clinic for treatment.
The row started when Mat Sabu arrived at Ampangan here for the the ceramah to address a crowd of about 600 people.
The Perkasa supporters started shouting “Anti-Mat Sabu” slogans while carrying banners that expressed their anger towards the PAS leader.
When the crowd turned unruly, PAS security volunteers escorted Mat Sabu to another route to get to the ceramah site.
As he was delivering his speech, a shouting match broke out between the protesters and PAS supporters near a main road.
The Perkasa supporters then rushed across the road in their attempt to meet Mat Sabu but were quickly stopped by PAS supporters.
A scuffle erupted and in the melee stones and mineral water bottles were thrown into the ceramah site, hitting one PAS supporter in the head.
Another PAS member was punched in the nose by a Perkasa supporter when the former tried to restrain the Perkasa mob.
