IPOH, Oct 7 — Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad today said that he was unsure of the veracity of an allegation that his special officer had delivered an official speech at a mosque in Kerian, stressing that the accuser must prove the claim.
Saarani said the Sultan of Perak’s decree must be obeyed and that even he, despite being the chairman of state religious affairs, would not dare to deliver a speech at any mosque.
“I am not sure about the authenticity of the activity. But if it happened, he cannot do so. To me, it is very simple — His Royal Highness’s decree must be obeyed.
“However the person making the allegation must prove it. We cannot simply make such a reckless accusation,” he told reporters after attending the closing ceremony of Perak Innovation Convention at the Stadium Indera Mulia here.
