KUALA LUMPUR – Police have not finalised the date to record a statement from opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim pertaining to a list of 121 MPs claimed to be supporting him to form a new government, according to Bukit Aman (Federal Police) Criminal Investigation Department (CID) director Datuk Huzir Mohamed.
He said the department did not have a confirmed new date to call Anwar.
Earlier, a message went viral on WhatsApp claiming that Anwar would be called to Bukit Aman (Federal Police headquarters) at 3pm today for the purpose of recording a statement, but this was denied by police.
Prior to this, it was reported that the interview with the PKR president at Bukit Aman was scheduled for October 13 but was postponed to a date to be announced later.
On Tuesday, Anwar Ibrahim had an audience with Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah at Istana Negara to provide documentation to support his claim that he had majority MPs support in the Dewan Rakyat (House of Representatives) to be Malaysia's 9th Prime Minister.
He had announced the same at a press conference on September 23 and this was followed by a slew of police reports against him by MPs whose names were allegedly on the list but denied that they backed him. – Bernama, October 15, 2020
