PKR president Anwar Ibrahim’s political secretary, Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak, is being sought by police in connection with an alleged assault case in Ampang last Saturday.

The Selangor Criminal Investigation Department (CID) said in a statement that Farhash and 10 other men were alleged to have assaulted a boxing coach outside Kompleks D’Star Arena on Merdeka Day.

In the 9pm incident, it is believed a fight broke out between 12 and 14 men at the complex in Ampang. The ruckus began when the suspect arrived at the centre and pushed the boxing coach in the face, police said.

Two men were then ordered to leave the premises by the complex management.

“When the victim reached the motorcycle parking area, he was attacked by 10 other men with helmets, chairs and a knife.

“The victim’s three friends tried to stop the fight, but they were overwhelmed and failed.

“As a result, the vicim suffered lacerations and wounds on his body,” police said.

Police are now looking for Farhash to assist in the investigations.

Farhash, who is also PKR Perak chief, was thrust into the limelight recently when he was arrested, along with Haziq Abdullah Abdul Aziz and seven others, over police investigations into several sex videos implicating Economic Affairs Minister Mohamed Azmin Ali.

The PKR state chief was released on July 23 after being detained for eight days. – September 3, 2019.
