Zahid Accuses Opponents Of Spinning His Mic Speech

---

BN chairperson Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said his speech at the recent MIC delegates assembly has been “spun” by his opponents.
Referring to a video excerpt of his speech, he pointed out he made clear in the speech that he was talking about political persecution and selective prosecution.
“That is the risk to BN leaders that I was referring to if our enemies win the 15th general election,” Zahid (above) said in a Facebook post last night.
His posting did not name the “enemies” nor describe the nature of the supposed spin against him.

Earlier yesterday, incumbent Iskandar Puteri MP Lim Kit Siang claimed Zahid's speech on Monday was a “brutally frank” admission that Umno’s leadership wanted an immediate election to save the “court cluster” from being charged in court.
Lim was referring to a portion of the speech where the Umno president suggested that BN leaders could face criminal trials if the coalition loses the election and that this could only be avoided if BN wins a “dominant victory” in GE15.
MIC president SA Vigneswaran came to Zahid’s defence, saying Zahid was referring to Pakatan Harapan’s “revenge politics” after the last general election.
Zahid then called on his social media followers to be wary of political spins by BN’s enemies.
“That is how they won the 14th general election - by twisting, confusing and inciting the rakyat,” he said. - Mkini
