MIC president G Palanivel said he would never make the colourful statements made in a video purported of him circulated online.
Blaming the video on the MIC re-elections, he said he will lodge a police report on the “doctored” video clip and urge action on those responsible.
“I categorically state that the contents of the video clip have been doctored and are completely untrue. I have never made and will never make such untrue statements or remarks…
“I am appalled that people can stoop to such a low level to doctor untrue video clips for reasons best known to them,” he said.
“I can only see this being the result of the fresh elections for MIC that I have called and the solid show of support by the branch chairmen of MIC to my leadership.”
In the 3 minute 16 second video clip uploaded online, a man who looks and sounds like Palanivel he has close ties with PKR and blames Indian voters for BN’s smaller majority in Cameron Highlands in the 13th general election.
"I won every Malay vote box you see, (the other candidates) will get 70 votes, I will get 400 votes. I only lost the bloody Indian vote box."
In the last general election, Palanivel defeated four other candidates with a slim 462 vote majority.
He received 10,506 votes with DAP's M Manogaran trailing behind him with 10,044 votes.
In the video, the person interviewed also disclosed how PKR "commanders" brought the crowd to his recent birthday bash.
"I call all the PKR commanders to my house, I can show you photographs, I am close to PKR you see.
"They are the ones who brought the crowd (to my birthday party), not my own kind, our MIC fellas cannot do that," he said
