PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang recently told PAS's 72nd annual muktamar that the US offered to assist the party in toppling the Malaysian government in 2014. Bukit Aman, the country's national police force, has reached out to Hadi over this claim. Syahir Sulaiman, Hadi's political secretary and MP for Bachok, confirmed the police's contact with Hadi's office regarding the matter. Hadi has agreed to cooperate fully with the police, but the specific date and time for their meeting have yet to be set.
Three PKR leaders from Bandar Tun Razak filed police reports over Hadi's claim at Cheras police station on Sunday. Hadi alleged that during Obama's visit to Malaysia in 2014, PAS's assistant secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan and Ahmad Samsuri Mokhtar, who was Hadi's political secretary, met with the US embassy. They reported that Takiyuddin and Samsuri firmly rejected the US offer.
However, the US embassy in Kuala Lumpur has since denied Hadi's claim, stating that the US had never attempted to influence who leads Malaysia.
