[KiniNews] With Bersatu scheduled to have its eighth annual general meeting soon, a poison pen letter has surfaced, targeting its deputy president, Hamzah Zainudin.

According to the letter sighted by Malaysiakini, the author accused Hamzah of planning to oust party president Muhyiddin Yassin, among others.

While saying the party takes the matter seriously, Bersatu information chief Tun Faisal Ismail Aziz said he personally had not received the letter.

Meanwhile, in a separate story, MCMC has recorded a statement from Perak PAS Youth chief Hafez Sabri over a false and “racially charged” social media post related to an attempted attack on Perak ruler Sultan Nazrin Shah.

The commission affirmed that its probe is linked to the Manjoi assemblyperson’s claim that the woman involved in the incident was Chinese.

“As confirmed by the Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department (CID) director, this is untrue and has the potential to stir racial tension and create negative perceptions among the public,” MCMC said.
