PETALING JAYA, MAY 31- Lembah Pantai MP Nurul Izzah Anwar is being deported from Sabah after the Immigration Department barred her from entering the state.
“Sabah immigration is arranging my deportation. I am not allowed to discuss with Darrell Leiking, who’s here waiting for me,” said Nurul who is also PKR vice president via Twitter.
Darrell Leiking who is representing as Nurul Izzah’s lawyer is also PKR deputy secretary general and Penampang MP.
According to Nurul’s political secretary Fahmi Fadzil, she flew to Sabah on Leiking’s invitation to celebrate Pesta Kaamatan in Penampang.
“I am being deported on the instructions of Sabah Chief Minister’s Office,” Nurul Izzah said via Twitter.
She also speculated that other Pakatan MPs would also be stopped from entering into Sabah.
Leiking meanwhile tweeted that Nurul Izzah has been put back in an Air Asia flight back to KL.
“She was denied entry (into Sabah), right to counsel and the Kaamatan celebration,” he said.
