PAS sec-gen says can only meet cops over alleged sensitive remarks on land ownership after Nenggiri polls, won’t retract comments
“Zawawi has given me a deadline before August 17, the Nenggiri polling day, to retract my statement, but I will not comply. All my comments during the ceramah in Bertam Baru about the land grant issue were based on facts”
(MMO) – Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan confirmed today that he has been summoned by the police regarding a video clip of a political leader allegedly making sensitive remarks during the Nenggiri state by-election campaign in Kelantan.
National daily New Straits Times reported that the PAS secretary-general confirmed the police contacted him while he was in Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday, requesting his statement.
“As a loyal citizen, I will go to the police station to provide my statement. However, I hope the police will grant me some time as I am currently occupied with campaigning for the Nenggiri state seat by-election,” Takiyuddin said after a ceramah in Sungai Asap last night.
“I will cooperate and provide my statement to the police after the polling day for the by-election.”
