IGP’s brother leader of church protest in Taman Medan
(The Malaysian Insider) – Datuk Abdullah Abu Bakar, who led the protest against the cross in a church in Taman Medan yesterday, is the older brother of Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar.
Abdullah, who confirmed this, said this was why the residents had approached him over the matter on Saturday.
“It just so happens that I’m the elder brother of Tan Sri Khalid (Abu Bakar). He is my younger brother,” he told The Malaysian Insider.
“That is why with this kind of issues, people come to me for help.”
Abdullah said the residents there knew him well as he was an Umno branch chief in Taman Medan.
“Of course, they know me. I was also an Umno division leader before.”
He said he had been an Umno member since the 1980s and denied that he was against Christians.
