Sock Gate Preacher Files 6 Police Reports Over Death Threats Slander
Independent preacher Firdaus Wong has filed six police reports yesterday over alleged death threats and defamation.
In a Facebook post yesterday, Firdaus divulged that all reports were lodged at the Wangsa Maju police station against five individuals, saying this was “as a start”.
“One report (was made) about a death threat against me and my family members.
“Another report was against threats to beat me up and the rest (of the reports) were for slandering me,” he said in the post.
Firdaus, who is also the owner of The Merdeka Times, said he will also be filing defamation suits against those who have allegedly slandered him.
“I often advise my friends not to act beyond the boundaries of religion and law, so let me walk the talk by allowing the authorities to take actions against them.”
No sabotage
Last week, Firdaus dismissed notions that he spread the issue involving socks bearing the word “Allah” to sabotage KK Mart over business rivalry.
In a post on TikTok, he said that his business venture, Mykampung Freshmart, has not been operating for some time as opposed to what certain parties have claimed.“I apologise to Malaysians because I did not explain that Mykampung Freshmart had already ceased operations about two years ago.
“Many social media users have attempted to create a perception that the socks issue has an element of sabotage by me based on business competition,” he said.
The controversy surfaced in recent weeks when images of the Miranosock socks with the word “Allah” being sold at KK Mart’s Bandar Sunway outlet went viral on social media.
Following the uproar, KK Mart apologised to all its customers, particularly the Muslim community, and confirmed that immediate actions had been taken to halt the sale of the socks.
KK Mart, its founder Chai Kee Kan and his wife Loh Siew Mui - who is also a company director - have been charged for deliberately hurting religious feelings over the socks controversy.
Meanwhile, the company’s former supplier, Xin Jiang Chang, and three directors were charged with abetting the crime.
All parties claimed trial to the charges.
Meanwhile, KK Mart is also suing Xin Jiang Chang for alleged sabotage over the socks issue. - Mkini
