PKR vice-president Tian Chua has asked the police to haul up the mastermind behind the distribution of the gay sex video which was intended to bring down federal minister and PKR deputy president Mohamed Azmin Ali.
He said it was clear that Azmin was a victim of an ill-intended act and those who had orchestrated the distribution of the videos must face legal action.
“I don’t know who is involved, as only the Inspector-General of Police may know who the political leader is. The issue is, there was a conspirator and action should be taken no matter how high their position in the party is,” he said.
He reminded party members of PKR’s formative years in the late 90s when party president Anwar Ibrahim was also a victim of gutter politics.
“Thousands of people demonstrated against gutter politics then. We stood in support of Anwar. We cannot be going back to doing the same thing,” he said, adding that the party must stay loyal to its principles and reject gutter politics.
Earlier today, IGP Abdul Hamid Bador said that a leader of a political party was behind the gay sex clips which had implicated Azmin. He said experts had held that the video was “highly likely” to be authentic, but facial recognition results were negative. – FMT
