BUKIT MERTAJAM, March 5 (Bernama) -- Kepala Batas Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Youth chief Amizudin Ahmat admitted that he was forced to use the media to expose corruption involving certain state party leaders.
He said the revelation through the media was also to pressure the party leadership at take action. However, he declined to reveal the individuals alleged to have received bribes from three quarries in the state.
"Wait for March 7. I will hand over the evidence and I hope the committee concerned will be thorough and fair in its investigation," he said at a press conference, here, Thursday.
Amizudin said this Saturday (March 7), he would be called by the party's Special Investigation Committee to be questioned on the matter.
The bribery case was exposed on Feb 26 at a press conference held at the Seberang Perai Municipal Council (MPSP) office.
At today's press conference, Amizudin was adamant that he had the evidence like documents including bank slips showing money from a quarry operator being put into one of the alleged individuals' personal account.
However, he declined to show the said proof when asked to do so by reporters but beat around the bush about the allegation.
"I did not say that two state PKR leaders were involved in corruption, but I have the proof of the transaction," he said.
Amizudin also expressed disappointment of being accused of receiving a bribe of RM5,000 monthly from a quarry and owning four cars, and of exposing Penang PKR's internal affairs because his term as MPSP councillor was not extended.
He said he was also upset that no action was taken against the two leaders believed to have accepted bribes although he had handed over the relevant documents as proof to the party president on Jan 8.
