Rafizi threatens to expose Selangor graft in leaked message

(MMO) – PKR’s whistleblower Rafizi Ramli is warning his party that he will reveal alleged corruption involving the Selangor administration unless it is halted, according to a leaked text message.

In the message purportedly sent to the “Solidarity for Anwar” WhatsApp group, Rafizi said he received complaints of demands for cash and women in dealings with the Selangor administration, which is headed by PKR deputy president Datuk Seri Azmin Ali.

“Yesterday I received reports and complaints from bona fide individuals that, other than money, there are now demands for ‘women’ when dealing with the state government. They have complained to me and I’m currently collecting information.

“All this talk about money and now women is making people inside and outside talk about ‘dedak’,” read the message sighted by Malay Mail Online.

“Dedak” is Malay for animal feed, and is used euphemistically to denote payoffs.

The Pandan MP also claimed to already have evidence on the matter, but was restraining himself from revealing them, as it would damage his party

Rafizi warned, however, that there was only so much he could witness before he overcame his qualms.

“If I am starting to speak out in front and out, that means I have evidence. I have my own limits before I make an expose about my own party,” Rafizi’s message read.

When asked to authenticate the message, Rafizi neither confirmed nor denied its contents.

“All I can say is no comment,” he told Malay Mail Online.
