Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim has fired another salvo at Mara chairperson Annuar Musa, this time accusing Annuar of using his positions in Mara and in a university to channel funds for the Kelantan football team, The Red Warriors (TRW).

In a posting in the Johor Southern Tigers Facebook page, Tunku Ismail also appeared to criticise the Umno information chief for allegedly exploiting the Fifa Puskas award to Penang footballer Mohd Faiz Subri.

"I predicted much earlier that Faiz's victory would definitely grab the attention of (certain) individuals, especially politicians who want to restore their dwindling reputations.

"Before using Faiz's success for your popularity, why doesn't Tan Sri come forward to give an explanation about sponsorship money from Mara investments and UniKL, which were forced to sponsor the Red Warriors team?" the crown prince asked in his posting.
