PETALING JAYA: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim should show the evidence he claimed to have to the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) that army personnel in Bera had received a RM300 bribe to vote ahead of early polling, says Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein.

“Anwar had said he wanted to show evidence, then show proof first. We will let the relevant agencies investigate,” said Hishammuddin when met in Sungai Buloh while campaigning for Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin.

The Defence Minister said he will not tolerate any attempts to undermine the image of the military personnel. “This has gone overboard. If you want to play politics, don’t stoop that low to garner public support,” added Hishammuddin, who is defending his Sembrong seat in Johor.Recently, Anwar claimed in Kuala Terengganu that military personnel in Bera were paid RM300 each to vote and that early polls were conducted ahead of Nov 15.
