K Pragalath | November 23, 2011

PKR women's wing chief Zuraida Kamaruddin said the reports were against five individuals including Najib Tun Razak and Shahrizat Abdul Jalil.

PETALING JAYA: All of PKR’s women wings simultaneously lodged police reports this morning over the National Feedlot Centre (NFC) controversy, except Kelantan.

The Kelantan women’s wing will lodge a report in the afternoon because of the flood situation.
Speaking at the Dang Wangi district police station, PKR’s women wing chief Zuraida Kamaruddin said:

“All the wings are lodging reports simultaneously except for those in Kelantan who would lodge reports in the afternoon,” said Zuraida, who is also Ampang MP.

Yesterday, Zuraida told the press that the police reports would be made against five individuals.

They are Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, his deputy Muhyiddin Yassin (who was Minister of Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Ministry when the project was approved in 2008); current Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Noh Omar; Women, Family and Community Development Minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil and NFC chairman Dr Mohamad Salleh Ismail.

Shahrizat’s family has been accused of missuing a RM250 million government soft loan given for the NFC project. Salleh is Shahrizat’s husband.

The police reports were lodged at 13 police district headquarters.

A crowd of 50 were present including representatives of resident associations, and NGOs such as Jingga 13 and Association of Women’s Initiative for Research, Development and Advancement Selangor and Kuala Lumpur at the Dang Wangi police station.

They held a protest outside the police station and distributed pamphlets.

“The motorists and passers-by are well informed. They honked at us to show their support,” said Zuraida.
