KOTA BARU: Malay political leaders should not make allegations against each other in public as this is not condoned by Islam, Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Aziz Nik Mat said.

He said allegations like sodomy and illicit sex degraded people and, therefore, were contrary to Islamic tenets.

He said Muslims were required to take care of five important things in life, including dignity, property and the mind.

"If there's proof (of the wrongdoing), take it to court. There's no need to make it public.

"Our religion does not approve of such allegations being made public, especially in the media, as it will be picked up by news agencies around the world," he said here yesterday.
"Malaysia seems to have lost its dignity (with such allegations being made public)."

Nik Aziz was commenting on an allegation by former student leader Mohd Saiful Bukhari Azlan that he had been sodomised by Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim and a statutory declaration by private investigator P. Balasubramaniam, later withdrawn, linking Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to murdered Mongolian Altantuya Shaariibuu.
