Ramasamy: Apology not in my vocabulary when it comes to Zakir Naik

“The word apology, in so far Zakir Naik is concerned, is not in my vocabulary,” he said in response to a notice of demand he had received from Dr Zakir’s lawyers today. “The notice claimed that I was sidelined in the party and that I was using Zakir Naik to make a comeback to a better position in the party, this is stupid, what has it got to do with this issue,” he said.Dr Zakir today issued notices of demand, served by legal firm Akberdin & Co, to Ramasamy, Bagan Dalam assemblyman Satees Muniandy, former ambassador Datuk Dennis Ignatius and Klang MP Charles Santiago.

Last Friday, Dr Zakir lodged police reports against Human Resource Minister M. Kulasegaran and the four. “Why is he sending notices to non-Muslims, a lot of Malays also criticised him, this is selective prosecution, he’s only targeting non-Muslims,” he said.“It doesn’t matter to me, I will see him in court and let him prove he’s not a money launderer, he’s not supporting terrorist movement, he’s not misusing public funds meant for charity, let it all come out in the open,” he said.
