Sanusi slams actor’s alleged remarks about harming ‘enemies of Islam’

The actor, who has been campaigning for PAS, does not represent the party, says its election director.

Sanusi Md Nor says the people have been living in peace and harmony in PAS-controlled Kelantan.
IPOH:
PAS election director Sanusi Md Nor has denounced a local actor’s remarks about harming the “enemies of Islam” or “kafir harbi”.

The actor, Zul Huzaimy, made the remarks while speaking at an event in Terengganu earlier this month.

A video of Zul’s remarks has gone viral, and social media users have questioned PAS over the matter as the actor has been seen campaigning for the party.

Speaking to reporters after an event here last night, Sanusi said Zul did not represent PAS.

He said only PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang and secretary-general Takiyuddin Hassan could speak on behalf of the party, adding that he himself did not dare do so.

“It’s dangerous to be talking like that, you can be arrested,” Sanusi said when asked to comment on Zul’s remarks.

Sanusi pointed out that PAS has never perpetuated violence against anyone in the 32 years it ruled Kelantan, adding its citizens from all walks of life lived in peace and harmony.

Meanwhile, Malaysiakini reported that Zul has since apologised for his remarks. He said the contentious portion of his speech had been taken out of context.
