Ex-Umno Batu Kawan deputy chief Khairuddin Abu Hassan thanked the government for arresting and sending him to the Sungai Buloh prison in Selangor.

That, Khairuddin said, gave him the opportunity to meet with PKR de facto leader Anwar Ibrahim.

“He was downstairs and I was upstairs, and we met every day,” Khairuddin said at a Bersih talk in Penang last night.
