AN audio recording of an alleged conversation of a PAS leader working with and receiving money from Umno is now a powerful recruitment tool for Amanah.
Mohamad Hishamuddin Ghazali of Rantau Panjang Amanah said PAS grassroots were defecting to the splinter party after listening to the recording, allegedly of Rantau Panjang PAS central committee member Nik Muhamad Abduh Nik Aziz in conversation with an Umno leader.
“When I first played the recording, about 20 people was present. After that a group of 72 youths and about 85 women came to hear the conversation,” he said.
Hishamuddin said thanks to the recording, he had managed to penetrate the Bukit Tuku state constituency in Kelantan.
He said the PAS member in the recording was receiving money for helping Umno in the Sarawak state elections two years ago.
He said the voice was allegedly that of Nik Abduh, who said in the recording that PAS leaders, including president Abdul Hadi Awang, had received money from Umno.
The full audio clip is 20 minutes long and Amanah is releasing it in four parts.
Kelantan Pakatan Harapan chairman Husam Musa was the first to release the recording.
In a press conference in Kuala Lumpur, Husam said the audio clip was a big issue and challenged PAS to prove it was not a genuine recording.
Nik Abduh, who is the Pasir Mas MP, has denied that that it is him speaking in the recording, calling it slander on Facebook on February 28.
“The claim that it is me speaking in the conversation is all nonsense and slanderous.
“PAS is a party that doesn’t get involved in matters that are prohibited by Islam, including taking bribes from Umno and following DAP around,” he wrote.
PAS vice-president Idris Ahmad last week told the party organ Harakah Daily that the party had never received funds from Umno.
But the denial is not stopping Amanah’s Hisamuddin
By simply attaching a loudspeaker to his mobile phone, he has been “broadcasting” the recording everywhere he goes.
