ALOR SETAR: PAS president Tan Sri Abdul Hadi Awang (pic) said he will talk in detail about his remark about non-Muslims being the root of corruption in court.
Abdul Hadi said that he had given his statement on this at Bukit Aman recently.
"They asked me whether I wanted to record my statement at my office or at Bukit Aman. I chose to give my statement at Bukit Aman," he said during a press conference after delivering his policy speech at the party 68th Muktamar.
The Marang MP is under investigation for incitement and abuse of network facilities following 28 police reports filed against him.
He went to Bukit Aman to record his statement on Monday (Aug 29).
Abdul Hadi came under fire for claiming that the root cause of corruption in the country was the influence non-Malays wielded over the economy and politics.
He said this had allowed non-Malays to dictate terms to the Malays, which in turn made the Malays become corrupted and entangled in financial scandals.
The PAS leader’s comments were roundly criticised by many Malaysians.
