"Detain Me, Drag Me To Court..." - Tun Mahathir

 "Detain me, drag me to the court! I will still repeat my statement that (DAP adviser) Lim Kit Siang is a racist and he is indeed a racist," alleged former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

Mahathir said DAP chairman Karpal Singh's statement that he would be detained and charged in court if the opposition captured Putrajaya in the 13th General Election (GE13), was to stop him from revealing more details about Lim's character as a racist.

"I am shocked, I have turned pale (sarcasm)...because DAP chairman Karpal Singh wants to detain me due to my revelation that DAP adviser Lim Kit Siang is a racist.

"DAP only wants to contest in areas with a Chinese majority because they are only accepted by the Chinese and DAP's action clearly shows that they (DAP) are racist," he said when speaking at a gathering in Kampung Padang Jual, Johol, here, today.

Yesterday, Karpal was reported to have said the opposition would detain the former Prime Minister and charge him in court for accusing Lim Kit Siang as a racist, if the opposition took over Putrajaya after the GE13.

Mahathir alleged that apart from DAP, its ally PAS were also a racist party since they (PAS) only contested in Malay majority areas, especially in Kelantan and Terengganu, unlike UMNO and MCA who contest in all constituencies throughout the country, without preference for any race majority.

Mahathir also alleged that Kelantan Menteri Besar and PAS spiritual adviser Datuk Abdul Nik Aziz Nik Mat was a hypocrite since he had performed the Friday prayers at the Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque in Putrajaya, to garner votes.

"Earlier PAS had said they would auction off Putrajaya but now they (PAS) are not interested in auctioning off Putrajaya but more interested in conquering the administrative capital of the country...why not build an administrative centre like Putrajaya in Kelantan," he asked.

Also present were his wife Tun Dr Siti Hasmah Mohd Ali and BN's Johol state assembly seat candid date Abu Samah Mahat.
