GE13: No statement issued barring civil servants from PR activities, says PM's Department

The Prime Minister's Department has denied that its Property Management Division had issued a notice prohibiting civil servants living in Putrajaya from getting involved in Pakatan Rakyat's activities.
Its senior deputy secretary-general, Datuk Othman Mahmood, said the department had never issued the notice bearing the division's name and logo, claiming that action would be taken against those who took part in Pakatan Rakyat's activities. He said the department had never issued any instruction or official notice without its official stamp.
"It has never given permission to any party to use the division's official emblem and logo as disseminated in the print and social media, and pasted at several places in Putrajaya quarters," he said in a statement.
He said the department had lodged a police report on the matter at the Putrajaya police station.
