KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 7 — Three police reports were lodged yesterday over a claim by PAS president and Marang Member of Parliament Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang that the United States had offered assistance to topple the Malaysian government in 2014.

The reports were lodged by Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) Bandar Tun Razak branch vice-chief V. Jonathan, PKR Bandar Tun Razak branch women’s chief Mazlina Osman and Bandar Tun Razak Angkatan Muda Keadilan deputy chief Amarul Hisham Jalil at the Cheras Police Station here.

Jonathan said the reports were lodged following Abdul Hadi’s statement during his speech at the 70th PAS Annual Muktamar at the Pusat Tarbiyah Islamiyah Kelantan on Sept 5, as reported by a news portal.


He said Abdul Hadi claimed that several PAS leaders were invited to a meeting with the United States Embassy during the visit of then-US President Barack Obama to Malaysia in 2014, with the foreign side allegedly offering assistance to topple the government of the day.
