Deputy Minister Mashitah Ibrahim's article in Utusan Malaysia irks the PAS women's wing. The latter says the party is always committed to its Islamic values.
KUALA LUMPUR: The PAS women’s wing has taken a deputy minister to task for alleging that the Islamist party no longer defends the Islamic state concept because it is power crazy.
The wing’s information chief Aiman Athirah Al Jundi dismissed the argument by Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Mashitah Ibrahim (photo) as “rubbish”.
Mashitah’s allegation was made in her article titled “Episod-episod pembohongan PAS” (Episodes of PAS lies) published in the Umno-owned Utusan Malaysia daily on Sept 12.
