  "account": "Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim refuted the accusation by PAS Deputy President Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man, describing it as a desperate attempt to discredit his statement. Kuala Lumpur: PAS Deputy President Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man denied alleging Perdana Menteri Anwar Ibrahim, asserting his claim that his statement related to the succession crisis in Negeri Sembilan, the police investigation, and defamation were based on facts and public events. In his filing on September 15, Tuan Ibrahim denied that his remarks were defamatory, challenging Anwar's claim that he had accused the Prime Minister of interfering in royal affairs and directing police investigations into Anwar's critics. Tuan Ibrahim maintained his stance that Anwar had interfered by recognizing Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir as Yang Dipertuan Besar following the proclamation declaring Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja afar as the new government's chief minister. Tuan Ibrahim also relied on previous rulings to challenge his statement as part of a defamation and abuse of power allegation. However, Anwar responded to the defense by stating that the existence of previous rulings must be distinguished from evidence proving that he had defamed, defrauded, or abused power, as alleged in Tuan Ibrahim's remarks. Anwar challenged the argument that Tuan Ibrahim could use those rulings to link him to any other accusations of abusing power during his administration. He described the defense as a desperate attempt by Tuan Ibrahim to discredit his statements. The dispute arose from Tuan Ibrahim's remarks made during a PAS rally in Felda Jenderak Utara, Kuala Krau, Pahang, on June 14, where Anwar portrayed him as abusing his position related to the succession crisis, police investigations, and defamation allegations. Anwar sought damages and an injunction against the statement deemed defamatory. Law firm SN Nair & Partners represented Anwar, while Yusfarizal, Aziz & Zaid represented Tuan Ibrahim.",
