Anwar decries Najib's 'vendetta' against Rafizi




Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim has likened the charge against PKR's director of strategy Rafizi Ramli to a personal vendetta by premier Najib Abdul Razak, in retaliation for the revelations that have been made. 

NONE“By continuously exposing scandals for months, (Rafizi) has (created) powerful enemies and now they are using whatever is at their disposal,” he said in a statement today.

“This is Najib's personal vendetta being played out by the various government agencies, (as) a smokescreen to (frighten) Malaysians trying to unearth the truth behind contracts and cronyism involving BN leaders.”

Selangor Menteri Besar Abdul Khalid Ibrahim said the state is prepared to finance the legal costs that Rafizi and former Public Bank clerk Johari Mohamed will incur in answering their respective charges.

In a press release Khalid said the Selangor government will fight corruption at every level, and that the state will set up a special fund to help finance Rafizi's legal costs.

NONERafizi and Johari were today charged in the Shah Alam Sessions Court with exposing details of four financial accounts held by Public Bank in relation to the National Feedlot Corporation (NFC).

The accounts were identified as the customer profiles of NFC, Meatworks and Livestocks Sdn Bhd, Agroscience Sdn Bhd and Mohd Salleh Ismail, who is NFC chairperson.

PKR deputy president Azmin Ali said it seems that Umno and BN are using various methods to cover up abuse of power.

“It shows that (they) are desperate ... . I believe Malaysians will be united in rejecting corruption and abuse of power. PKR urges the rakyat to (unite in support of) Rafizi and urge that he is given a fair trial,” he added.

  1. We see too clearly from a neutral & democratic New Zealand. For these low lives & criminals, God' s nemesis will prevail. Look at Gaddafi , then Assad, when Syrians wanted fair & free elections, Assad said there were foreign terrorists wanting to topple the Gov't… now he kills them. Gaddafi and Assad weren't even democratically elected! Just like your PM - handed down from Daddy! Even watching from afar, we have reached the brink now: We call the most horrific course on these criminals. The people's power, the people's day will come.
