Nik Nazmi kena tangkap khalwat bukan kerja PKR, kata Amirudin
Naib Presiden PKR, Amirudin Shari berkata parti itu banyak urusan lain untuk diberi perhatian berbanding perangkap lawan politik.
PKR Vice President Amirudin Shari has denied his party being involved in the arrest of Bersatu leader Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad by Selangor Islamic Department (Jais) due to their being together with a non-mahram woman in a private setting. Amirudin stated that PKR has numerous other matters to attend to rather than attempting to apprehend Nik Nazmi through a khalwat case, according to Sinar Harian.
He emphasized that such actions are not part of their responsibilities, as reported. Earlier today, Selangor Islamic Council (Mais) refuted allegations that Nik Nazmi's arrest by Jais on Thursday was an act of harassment or trap. Salehuddin Saidin, the chairman, affirmed that the authority acted solely based on the official complaint received and in accordance with the established laws without manipulating the situation to ensnare any party.
On the morning of this report, Nik Nazmi confirmed that he was one of the two individuals detained by Jais on suspicion of khalwat in Petaling Jaya on Thursday and was willing to cooperate with any legal proceedings. Nik Nazmi acknowledged that only he and one woman were present at the location when Jais officials arrived, but insisted they did not engage in any conduct that would raise suspicions.
The former minister of Native Affairs and Environmental Conservation stated that the meeting's purpose was to discuss joint projects with his colleagues. Subsequently, Bersatu downplayed Nik Nazmi's involvement in any party activities for the past three months.
