Anwar: Pakatan not bound by PAS ulama decision

He says they may not be fully aware of issues regarding Khalid.

PETALING JAYA: PKR leader Anwar Ibrahim today played down the PAS Religious Council’s decision to back Selangor Menteri Besar Abdul Khalid Ibrahim, saying Pakatan Rakyat was not bound by it.

“We respect their view, but it will not bind Pakatan Rakyat in its decision,” he said.

He added that there could be issues that members of the Council were not aware that needed to be explained to them.

He also appealed to PKR members to be sensitive to Khalid’s feelings when commenting on the issue.

“I admit that sometimes some PKR members have made sensitive comments,” he said. “But I now ask them to exercise some control and to concentrate on facts alone.”
