Arjunan saga takes another turn

(Malaysiakini) The police report lodged by Kuala Kangsar division PKR deputy youth chief Adam Haris Abdullah against Kg Tawas PKR chief MS Arjunan at Ipoh police district headquarters yesterday, seems to raise more questions than answers.

NONEAfter a media conference, Adam, accompanied by former Ipoh Barat division PKR chief Fauzi Muda, had lodged the police report against Arjunan for allegedly misusing the party's name for his own political agenda.

He was referring to Arjunan filing a police report on Saturday claiming that Federal Territories and Urban Well-being Deputy Minister M Saravanan, of the MIC, was involved in immoral activities such as prostitution as well as gangsterism.

Fauzi had stated that Arjunan (below) was the former secretary for the party's Ipoh Barat division when he was the chief, but later he had suspended the latter for alleged misconduct.

NONEAt the start of the media conference outside the police headquarters, Adam launched a personal attack against Arjunan, levelling all sorts of allegations against him, while Fauzi was seen whispering in his ear.

Although Adam was seen as very vocal at the media conference, it seemed like Fauzi was the puppet master.

When asked whether he had been bought over by the BN to make the police report against Arjunan, Adam hotly denied the allegation and said he was not defending Saravanan but was only trying to save the name of his party.

When asked why he was accompanied by Fauzi, who had resigned from PKR, he said as a good friend he had come to give him moral support.

On why he is lodging the police report when party seniors had not bothered, he said he did not know why they had not but he had done it out of concern for the party.

On Wednesday night Fauzi had sent a SMS to Malaysiakini asking for its presence at the police station for the media conference against Arjunan.
