At a ceramah in Johor on Friday, Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Muhyiddin claimed that a group of Jews want PH to win the election, and alleged that it was working with Jews and Christians to “colonise” the country.

Accusing the former prime minister of inciting racial and religious tensions, Rafizi said PKR plans to file an election petition against Muhyiddin.

“The video can threaten public order and peace, and cause tensions between Malays and non-Malays,” Rafizi told a press conference.

“I have given instructions (for PKR’s legal team) to be fully prepared to file an election petition in Pagoh against Muhyiddin, which will be the first in history.

He said the Election Offences Act clearly states that campaigns must not incite racial and religious tensions.

Under Section 4a of the Election Offences Act 1954, those who have been convicted of making a statement that promotes ill-will, discontent or hostility between people of the same race or different races have to vacate their seats if elected.

Rafizi said PKR Youth chief Adam Adli will lodge a police report so an investigation can be conducted into Muhyiddin’s video.

In a video of the ceramah which has since gone viral, Muhyiddin claimed that there were Malays attending church services in Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya on Sundays.

“They have become Christians,” he alleged.
