The war of words between blogger Syed Azidi Syed Abdul Aziz and PAS Youth information chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari took another turn with the former claiming that he had received RM4 million from the Islamic party under its 'political psywar' budget.

He said this in answer to Fadhli's charge that the blogger, who is better known as ‘Kickdefella', had not contributed anything to help the party in the 2008 general elections.

"PAS has no reason to give me such a big amount of money if I did not contribute anything," he said in explaining his motive for the exposure.

In his blog titled, 'I believe Nik Aziz will be charged - Answer to MB Kelantan press secretary and blogger Tulang Besi', Syed has challenged Fadhli to investigate the disbursement of the fund and show proof that it did not include meeting personal expenditure.

He has also called blogger Abdul Rahman Talib or Tulang Besi to check this out and expose the person who disbursed the fund.

However, Ahmad Fahdli claimed that Kelantan PAS Youth is not aware about the 'anti-Pak Lah project' and will raise the issue at the upcoming meeting.

He had also called on Syed Azidi to reveal more details on the issue.

Syed Azidi told Malaysiakini that he had to resort to this move to rebut claims that he contributed nothing during the general election to help the party.

"He (Ahmad Fahdli) is arrogant. As a newly-appointed press secretary, he is supposed to look into the factual details before issuing statements," he added.

When asked if he will accept the challenge thrown by Ahmad Fadhli, Syed Azidi said: "There is no need for it".
