UPDATED
In view of this, Public Order and Internal Security Department director Salleh Rashid said action might be taken against the opposition leader for allegedly making a false claim that he was knocked down by a police vehicle during the Bersih 2.0 rally on July 9.
The CCTV recording shows him falling off his motorcycle after it hit a divider and he fell on the pavement, he added.
According to Salleh, the footage was taken from a CCTV in the Sri Bukit Persekutuan housing area.
The recording showed the motorcycle, on which the PAS leader was riding pillion, losing balance when it made a U-turn to escape pursuing police vehicles.
Salleh also expressed puzzlement as to why Mohamad Sabu needed to be on a wheelchair when police investigations showed that the latter had a soft tissue injury to the right knee.
The PAS leader had claimed that he suffered a torn ligament in his right knee, resulting in doctors inserting a screw.
Contacted later, Mohamad Sabu refused to comment on the matter.
I prefer not to comment because whatever I say will be twisted by the media. I have discussed with my lawyer and we are looking into the possibility of taking legal action against the police.
I dont wish to make any comments except in court, he told FMT.
