[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: Pakatan Harapan leaders have filed a police report against PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang over an alleged defamatory article published in Harakah Daily, the Islamic party’s official mouthpiece.

DAP central executive committee member Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali claimed that the article accused PH of fraternising with the corrupt when it was in power.

In a statement, Sheikh Umar said the report was made at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters at 11am.

“This is a malicious and slanderous statement by someone who calls himself a religious scholar,” he said.
