Anwar Ibrahim, the Prime Minister, has been sued by Tun Mahathir Mohamad for RM150 million in a libel lawsuit. The lawsuit alleges that Anwar accused Dr Mahathir of enriching himself and his family members and being a racist. Tun Mahathir, who is 97 years old, is requesting RM50 million in general damages and RM100 million in exemplary damages.
Tun Mahathir dubbed as crazy old man
According to Tun Mahathir, Anwar made these statements as the prime minister, and as a result, they had a more severe impact on him than if they had been made by an ordinary citizen.
One Twitter user states that our former Prime Minister is headed in an unpleasant direction. He claims that Tun M is senile and crazy. Furthermore, a popular sentiment is that he should be focusing on the benefit of the country rather than sitting down, complaining and suing other people.
Netizens are rooting for PM Anwar and openly hope that Tun M loses this battle. He has already humiliated himself in the previous elections, many think that he will most definitely humiliate himself again this time. It is sad to see one of the greatest politician in Malaysian history reducing himself with controversies and accusations.
