Nik Aziz Seeks Clarification From Anwar

KOTA BAHARU, Feb 9 (Bernama) -- Pas spiritual leader Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat will seek clarification from Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) advisor Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim on the statement by DAP national chairman Karpal Singh that Anwar was not fit to lead the Pakatan Rakyat (PR).

"I do not want to comment on the matter and I want to ask Datuk Seri Anwar what is the truth," he told reporters after attending a Chinese New Year function here yesterday.

Karpal Singh at a news conference yesterday called on Anwar to quit as PR leader as his actions of encouraging party-hopping was "immoral" and tarnished the image of the PR.

Nik Abdul Aziz, who is Kelantan Menteri Besar, said the matter had to be clarified by Anwar himself.

On the issue of party-hopping, he said such actions were contemptible and against the wishes of voters who chose their candidates.
