KUALA LUMPUR, May 30- Lembah Pantai Umno division head Datuk Raja Nong Chik Raja Zainal Abidin today lodged a police report on a statement made by the Lembah Pantai Member of Parliament Nurul Izzah Anwar linking him to the purchase of 4.856 hectares of land in Bukit Kiara.
He said the report was to enable the police to investigate the statement made by Nurul Izzah, who is also Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) vice-president, one day before polling for the 13th general election.
Raja Nong Chik claimed that the statement had slanderous undertone.
“I leave the matter to the police to investigate. I will consider filing an (election) petition and a suit against her (Nurul Izzah),” he told reporters after lodging the report at the Pantai Police Station at about 3pm today.
Nurul Izzah defeated Raja Nong Chik, who was the former Minister of Federal Territories and Urban Wellbeing, in the 13th general election on May 5 with a majority of 1,847 votes.
