PAS defamed me again: Yeoh

K’tan reps themselves agreed to host Sukma in 2028, says sports minister

Updated 56 seconds ago · Published on 17 Mar 2023 9:39PM

KUALA LUMPUR – Youth and Sports Minister Hannah Yeoh has lambasted PAS Youth chief Mohamad Kamal Mohamed for allegedly accusing her of denying Kelantan’s rights to host the 2028 Malaysian Games (Sukma).

Yeoh was referring to Kamal’s statement to Harakahdaily titled Guna Kuasa: Giliran Sukma Kelantan Dinafikan Lagi (Abuse of power: Kelantan denied hosting Sukma).

“PAS defamed me again. We at KBS did not deny Kelantan’s right to host Sukma,” she said.

Yeoh said that it was decided that Sarawak will host Sukma next year and that the National Sports Council (NSC) will organise the 2026 edition, while Kelantan will host the 2028 games.

According to Yeoh, representatives from Kelantan were present at the meeting and agreed to host Sukma in 2028, citing that the state would need sufficient time to prepare for the biennial games.

Meanwhile, Yeoh has lodged a police report against Kamal. 

Earlier, Kamal alleged that Kelantan was denied the chance to host the Sukma due to the political games played by the unity government.

“This DAP minister is well-known for using her powers in the shadows.

“The youth in Kelantan will remember today as the day the state was denied the rights to host Sukma because of political interference,” Kamal was quoted by Harakahdaily.

Anwar sues Sanusi for defamation; Sanusi says, “My speech backed by records on Anwar’s sodomy case.”

..

Kedah Menteri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor contended that his 15th general election (GE15) campaign speech was based on public records about Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim’s Sodomy 1 case and other moral-related matters.

In his statement of defence against Tambun MP Anwar’s defamation suit, the PAS state chief said that he is ready to prove in court the contents of his speech by referring to the 2004 Federal Court remark about the plaintiff’s sodomy matter, among other matters, widely known by the general public.

Sanusi: No malicious intent, did not slander Anwar

  • 17-03- 2023 06:22 PM

KUALA LUMPUR: Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor has stressed that he had no malicious intent and did not slander Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim when speaking during the ‘Jelajah PN (Perikatan Nasional) Best Tambun’ election campaign last year.

Muhammad Sanusi, 48, in his statement of defence in response to the Prime Minister’s defamation suit said he was merely criticising Anwar during the 15th General Election (GE15) campaigning.

“As a politician, the plaintiff should have the courage to take responsibility for the facts that I stated and not be offended by the comments, suggestions and criticisms made by me and the community,“ said the Kedah PN chairman in the statement filed through Messr. Yusfarizal Aziz & Zaid on Feb 13.

On Jan 11, the Alor Setar High Court ordered the Kedah Chief Minister to file a statement of defence in response to the defamation suit by Feb 13.

Anwar filed the suit on Dec 13 last year over Muhammad Sanusi’s speech during the election campaign accusing the Pakatan Harapan chairman of immoral behaviour.

Muhammad Sanusi also asserted that he was only carrying out his responsibilities and freedom of expression provided under the Federal Constitution, not unlike the plaintiff who criticised and made accusations against opposing parties during the election campaign.

“Thus, the speech gave a different point of view and the criticisms made against the plaintiff were supported by facts and true records related to him that should not be blocked and subjected to legal action,“ he added.

Sanusi ‘unapologetic’ in defence, says Anwar in court filing

Sanusi Nor’s defence had said Anwar Ibrahim should not be ‘thin-skinned’ and had alleged that Anwar’s own campaign speeches were defamatory and extreme.

V Anbalagan – 17 Mar 2023, 6:53pm

KUALA LUMPUR: Anwar Ibrahim has rejected an explanation offered by Kedah Perikatan Nasional chief Sanusi Nor over remarks made against him in a campaign speech during the general election last November.

In a statement of reply filed over his defamation suit against Sanusi, Anwar said Sanusi’s defence showed he had still maintained an “unapologetic attitude” towards him.

Anwar said the defamation was premeditated, malicious and was borne out of mala fide intentions.

Describing Sanusi’s reasoning as “oxymoronic and farcical”, Anwar said he was now entitled to adduce evidence of Sanusi’s own character and turpitude at the hearing of the suit.

Anwar had filed a suit for defamation against Sanusi in December last year.

Last month, Sanusi had in his defence to the suit said that Anwar had no basis to be “thin-skinned”.

He said Anwar had during his own election campaign speeches subjected his political opponents to multiple accusations which were not merely critical but also “defamatory” and “extreme”.

“It would be unreasonable and surprising for a politician who regularly calls others ‘thieves’, ‘stupid’, etc., to suddenly become sensitive when his opponents comment and criticise him based on his background which is known to the public,” Sanusi’s defence said.

Sanusi also said his comments about Anwar were based on matters which were derived from public records going back to 1998 when Anwar was sacked from the government.

The Jeneri assemblyman is relying on the defences of justification, qualified privilege, and fair comment to defeat Anwar’s suit.

Three men held for allegedly attacking restaurant workers in Cyberjaya

Friday, 17 Mar 2023 9:12 PM MYT

PUTRAJAYA, March 17 — Police arrested three men for allegedly beating two workers of a nasi kandar restaurant in Cyberjaya near here yesterday after the footage of the incident went viral on social media.

Sepang district police chief ACP Wan Kamarul Azran Wan Yusof said the trio, aged 50 to 51, were detained separately at the Cyberjaya Police Station and Sepang District Police Headquarters between 1.40am and 10am today.

In the 7.30 pm incident, the three men who went to the restaurant to eat were believed to have beaten the restaurant workers after one of them was told not to use his bare hand to pick up a side dish in the rice section.

“The suspect is said to have used his hand to pick up food while drunk… After being told to stop, the men acted aggressively and started to hit the staff,” he said in a statement.

Wan Kamarul Azran said the staff were also hit using metal tongs on their head and body, causing them to suffer injuries.

The case is being investigated under Section 324 of the Penal Code for causing injuries and Sections 427 and 506 of the same code for criminal intimidation.

He said two of the suspects, a tourist guide and a taxi driver, have previous criminal and drug records.

One of three men has been remanded until Sunday, and police will submit a remand application for the other two suspects tomorrow, he added. — Bernama

Armed police have swarmed the west Auckland suburb of Henderson in a major operation where a police car has been shot at.

Video provided to the Herald shows a police car riddled with bullet holes.

“We’re alright – we’ve got him,” an officer told drivers.

A resident on Seymour Rd near Parr’s Park said one police car had a smashed window. Another said eight ambulances had passed their home on Edmonton Rd in response to the unfolding emergency.

A witness standing outside Pak’nSave on Alderman Drive said he can see eight police cars, three ambulances and a police helicopter overhead.

Five armed police officers were standing near the roundabout on Sel Peacock Drive. Auckland buses are being diverted due to what Auckland Transport says is a “police incident”.

Officers appeared to be focused on a cordoned-off area further up the road.
