After getting off to a rocky start on Friday with his bus being
attacked, opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim has reportedly been attacked
during a talk at a mosque in Alor Setar, Kedah.
According to a
flurry of tweets from PKR leaders, a group they allege to be right wing
Malay rights group Perkasa members disrupted the event at Masjid Pumpong
in the northern state capital.
“I just received information that
Anwar Ibrahim has been attacked by Perkasa members at a tazkirah
event…,” tweeted Kuantan MP Fuziah Salleh at around 8.50pm today.
“Perkasa member trying to storm the masjid to stop Anwar from tazkirah,” tweeted vice president Tian Chua.
“Anwar now safe at Imam's house after the Perkasa assault,” reported vice-president N Surendran.
Yesterday, Anwar’s Jelajah Merdeka Rakyat bus was splashed with red paint and damaged while on its Kelantan leg.
