UPDATED
KAPIT: Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim stopped his ceramah in Kapit in the interior of central Sarawak after a longhouse chief asked him about a sex video and his Omega watch, witnesses said today.
Anwar, who had spoken for 20 minutes, left abruptly after longhouse chief Edison Bugap in Melekun asked him to explain his sodomy case, the video and the watch, according to a resident, said Bernama.
The national news agency reported that Anwar told the 120-strong crowd that they should be more worried about logging and seizure of their native customary rights land, the resident said.
The issue of the sex video allegedly featuring a man resembling Anwar has dogged his campaign trail in the Sarawak election.
On Sunday, Anwar ticked off a TV journalist who asked him about the watch.
Anwar has denied that the Omega allegedly found in a hotel room after a sex act caught on tape belonged to him.
Anwar’s aide: Bernama’s version untrue
Anwar’s camp however told FMT that the version of the event in Melekun as reported by Bernama was factually inaccurate.
“It is true that a question on the sex tape was raised but Datuk Seri (Anwar) did not abruptly leave the ceramah,” said an aide to the PKR de facto leader.
“In fact the crowd got very angry with the man who had asked the question and had wanted to assault him.
“He was asked to leave the ceramah, which he did.” added the aide.
He said that Anwar continued with his ceramah which was well-received by the locals.
Case to be completed next week
In another development, Inspector General of Police Ismail Omar said that the police have sufficient evidence to identify the man in the sex video.
He said that the investigations into the video were expected to be completed next week.
“We are now ascertaining, who is the owner of the (Omega) watch handed to the police,” he said.
He added that the police had also managed to talk to everyone involved in the sex video, throwing in the possibility that the police have also interviewed the woman in the video.
