PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar today lodged a police report at Dang Wangi police station over an anonymous SMS she received threatening the kidnap of her daughter.

NONE According to Nurul Izzah, the first SMS she received on Wednesday morning while she was in Doha, Qatar said her daughter would receive the same fate as Sharlinie Mohd Nashar, a five-year-old girl who went missing while playing with her sister near her house in Petaling Jaya three years ago.

“The threat was that my daughter would receive the same fate as the missing girl if I continue to support my father, Anwar Ibrahim (opposition leader and PKR de facto leader), and that I would not be able to save my daughter,” she lamented.

“The person (who sent the SMS) also sent another SMS yesterday afternoon asking me to force my father to resign from politics or else something would happen to my daughter.”

In her police report, Nurul Izzah said she received another threatening SMS that “something bad” will happen to her daughter if she continues to support her father.

She was accompanied by her mother and PKR president Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, three lawyers and 15 supporters.

Nurul Izzah has a three-year-old daughter Raja Nur Safiyah and a two-year-old son, Raja Harith.

The girl Sharlinie referred to the SMS could be Sharlinie Mohd Nashar , five, who went missing while playing in front of her home in Taman Medan, Petaling Jaya in 2008. She has not been found since.

The incident happened after another girl, Nurin Jazlin Jazimin , went missing in September 2007, and was found murdered and her body placed in a bag several months later.

The controversial SMS which Nurul Izzah received read: “ yb nurul, berhati2,jangan terus menerus menyokong ayah yb, dsai.,kerana bimbang ada yg sakit hati nak jadikan nasib anak yb mcm sharlinie. oleh itu sebelum apa2 terjadi, yb bercakaplah benar walaupun pahit tentang ayah yb, dgn ini yb dapat selamatkan anak yb. disamping itu yb dapat halang ayah yb dari terus tipu rakyat, berhenti dari politik dan selesaikan masalah peribadi. jadilah ibu yg penyayang dan anak yg bertanggungjawab .”

(YB Nurul, be careful, stop continuing to support your father. Worried that there could be others who are angry and your children could receive the same fate as Sharlinie. Hence, before any tragedy befalls you, it is proper for YB (Nurul Izzah) to tell the truth about your father as this will save your children, and at the same time prevent your father from cheating the people, retire from politics and resolve his personal problem. You must be a loving mother and responsible daughter.)

Anonymous SMS received on May 5

Nurul Izzah, who is also Lembah Pantai MP, said she received an earlier SMS from the same individual on May 5, saying “there was something important” which the person wanted to relate to her.

“The individual asked me to call him or her immediately and the SMS was sent twice that same day.

“I am worried over the safety of my children and my family and I think this threat was politically motivated to end my father’s political struggle,” she said.

The young MP believes the sender had violated the country's laws namely on criminal intimidation, criminal conspiracy and attempt to kidnap or abduct for the purpose of murder, and all are offences under the Penal Code.

Nurul Izzah calls on the police to conduct an in-depth investigation on this serious threat against her and her children.

“This is not the first time that my family has been threatened in a way seen to be politically motivated as prior to this, my father Anwar has received similar threats and slander on the sex video , as well as the sabotage on my father’s car on April 19,” she said.

Anwar has vehemently denied that he was the person depicted in the sex video. Anwar’s driver, Abdullah Sani Said, 51, has also lodged a police report over the alleged sabotage on Tuesday.
