PORT DICKSON: WikiLeaks has dismissed claims that it published details of Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s so-called millions stashed in offshore accounts.
In its Twitter, the whistleblower said it has not published anything on Anwar’s bank accounts.
“WikiLeaks has published significant information about Malaysian politicians but not Mr. Ibrahim’s bank accounts. (link: https://wikileaks.org/plusd) wikileaks.org/plus.”
“Claims spread in Malaysia that @WikiLeaks published @anwaribrahim’s bank account details are false.”
“Liang Tech (Teck) Meng is pushing a fabrication,” added the administrator, here today.
In a report published by The Coverage, Gerakan’s former Simpang Renggam MP Liang Teck Meng claimed that according to Wikileaks, Anwar has numerous accounts in the United States, Singapore, China and Israel.
Liang was reported as saying all the accounts posted on Wikileaks had full details of its owner, status, passport number, type of bank account, date the account was opened as well as maturity date.
The report also listed the alleged 20 accounts’ details.
However PKR communications director Fahmi Fadzil responded by saying that the false claim was an old one made in 2013.
He warned that the party would act against those who continue to spread such unverified information through social media in an attempt to discredit the PKR de facto leader in the run-up to the Port Dickson parliamentary by-election.
