DAP’s Kit Siang to start legal action against new PAS recruit Annuar Musa over May 13 claim

KUALA LUMPUR, July 7 — Retired DAP leader Tan Sri Lim Kit Siang said he has directed his lawyers to begin legal proceedings against PAS’ Tan Sri Annuar Musa who claimed the former had actively incited violence during the May 13, 1969 riots.

“There is no such book. It is a figment of Annuar’s imagination. I have instructed my lawyers to institute action to clear my name,” Lim said in a statement.Lim then reiterated the events from 1969, saying he was originally supposed to contest the Bukit Bintang parliamentary seat during the general election that year, but at the last minute, was sent to contest in Bandar Melaka.

“In actual, I was never in Kuala Lumpur on May 11, 12 and 13 of 1969, as on the morning of May 13, I flew to Kota Kinabalu to help the independent candidates as polling day in Sabah and Sarawak was scheduled later,” he added.
