Thread user apologises over doctored image of MP in bridal gown

Former Penang PKR youth leader Nur Mushawwir Hrsikesa Thaitchana Muruthi, now inactive in politics, has expressed regret for posting a manipulated image of Hulu Terengganu MP Rosol Wahid dressed in a white bridal gown on the Threads social media platform. Mushawwir informed FMT that he would remove the image and extend an apology to the MP.

He emphasized that he is no longer involved in politics and holds no political positions. Rosol had sternly requested an apology, stating that the image was produced to embarrass and tarnish his reputation as both a Muslim and an MP. He had previously likened the special session in the Dewan Rakyat, where he criticized the royal commission of inquiry report on Tabung Haji, to a wedding ceremony without the bride and groom.

Speaker Johari Abdul subsequently clarified that it was a parliamentary sitting, with Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi present to represent the Cabinet.
