‘Two Pakatan leaders will ditch Anwar’

Kita officials claim a DAP and PAS chief will make the announcement after the Sarawak election.

PETALING JAYA: Two Kita officials have predicted that Anwar Ibrahim will lose the support of two senior Pakatan Rakyat leaders—one from DAP and the other from PAS—after the Sarawak state election.


The Kita men—central committee member Muhammad Firdaus Christopher and Selangor election committee chief Abdul Malek Shamsuddin—said the two Pakatan leaders would ask Anwar to give up his position as opposition leader because they believed he was indeed the man shown to be having sex with a prostitute in the controversial video screened for journalists last month.

They did not name the two leaders, but said their reason for waiting until after the Sarawak election was that Pakatan needed Anwar as a vote puller.

“But if Pakatan loses, they will blame Anwar,” Firdaus said.

Both Firdaus and Abdul Malek are former members of PKR, the party Anwar leads. They called on all leaders and members of Pakatan parties to stop defending the opposition leader in the face of what they said was clear evidence of his loose morals.

“By defending him, are they condoning his act,” Firdaus said.

The two also called on Anwar to give up politics “for the sake of the nation”.

“The nation has to progress,” Firdaus said. “He should be talking about how he is going to help the Indian poor, the Sabahans and Sarawakians instead of about his case.”

The main promoters of the sex video are tape, former Malacca chief minister Abdul Rahim Thamby Chik, Kedah businessman Shazryl Eskay Abdullah, and former senator Shuib Lazim.

Anwar has denied that he is the individual in the video. His family is also standing by him.

Inspector General of Police Ismail Omar last Thursday announced that the police had enough evidence to identify man the man in the video.

Kita was formed by Zaid Ibrahim after he had quit PKR following some disagreement with the party’s leadership.
