Pokok Sena MP Mahfuz Omar has brought Piah Samat, the mother of murder convict Sirul Azhar Umar, to meet former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamad.
The meeting took place at Yayasan Perdana in Putrajaya, but it remains uncertain when it took place.
Pictures of the meeting can be found on Facebook where it showed Mahfuz arriving with Piah and her relative and their meeting with the longest serving premier.
Mahfuz ( standing on the left ), who is also PAS information chief, had on Friday informed Malaysiakini that he was trying to arrange a meeting between the 74-year-old Piah ( in the middle ) with Mahathir.
This follows the former premier's stinging blog posting against premier Najib Abdul Razak for refusal or evading in answering questions including the murder Altantuya Shariibuu where Sirul is convicted with chief inspector Azilah Hadri, and also the controversial 1MDB fund.
Sirul acted under orders
Mahathir had questioned who had ordered the killing of Altantuya, following Sirul's exclusive interview with Malaysiakini when the former police commando admitted he acted under orders and had been made a scapegoat and that the real person involved in the crime are still out there.
The former PM added that as a result of Najib's silence, he was concerned that Umno and BN will lose at the 14th general election.
Mahathir further said yesterday that he was not accusing Najib of the murder but wants the police to clear the PM and that what he asked were questions raised by the public.
Mahfuz had brought Piah to meet Sirul in Sydney last month.
The Pokok Sena MP when asked by Malaysiakini in Parliament late this evening, refused to confirm the meeting but said he will hold a press conference in Parliament tomorrow morning.
