According to Malaysiakini, Cheras Umno is now collecting funds to support Utusan Malaysia which is facing a defamation suit from Pakatan Rakyat MP YB Teresa Kok. Kicking off the fund with a RM20,000 contribution, division head Syed Ali Al Habshee said the Tabung Azan would also be used to assist mosques and suraus that needed money to buy loudspeakers for the purpose of the azan (call to prayer).
What's disturbing here is that Umno is onceagain playing the racila and religious card to cause communial strive in the country and the Police is blind to this fact! Syed Ali Al Habshee was quoted as saying “Teresa has challenged the honour of Malays by suing Utusan Malaysia as it is a newspaper owned by the Malays. He went on to add "Challenging the Malays is similar to challenging Umno,”.
In a letter to HINDRAF Chairman P. Waytha Moorthy dated Oct 11, 2008, SRIHERO revealed that Utusan Malaysia belongs to Umno.
