KUALA KANGSAR: A brief commotion occurred outside the Amanah operations centre here on Wednesday when an aide to Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor showed up for the press conference by PKR vice-president Rafizi Ramli.Rafizi had been scheduled to reveal further allegations regarding the use of a private jet by Rosmah, wife of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
Reporters were aware last night that Rosmah’s aide, Datuk Rizal Mansor, planned to turn up at the press conference to rebut the allegations by Rafizi in person.
Rizal arrived around noon together with several other unidentified men and was seen shaking hands with Amanah candidate Dr Ahmad Termizi Ramli.
However, when they asked to enter the building, Amanah staff stopped them from doing so.
A verbal confrontation ensued between the two parties as Rafizi arrived and proceeded upstairs for the press conference.
Rizal and his companions later left the premises after being repeatedly told that they could not enter on grounds that only media personnel were invited.
Members of the media waiting in the room upstairs were subsequently asked by an Amanah representative to produce their media tags to verify their identities.
“We just want to make sure that there aren't those who wish to cause disturbance," Rafizi said before the start of the press conference.
