Hishammuddin Says Letter Requesting Uncollected ICs Be Send To Sabah Was Fake



PUTRAJAYA, Jan 31 (Bernama)-- Home Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein said a letter purportedly from the National Registration Department (NRD) ordering all uncollected identification cards (IC) be send to Sabah was fake.

He said the NRD had never sent a letter asking uncollected ICs be send anywhere and deemed such an action as politically inclined to tarnish the name of the country, especially when the general election is near.

He said NRD director-general Datuk Jariah Mohd Said will lodge a police report today on the matter.

"It is a fake letter and the accusation is false," he told reporters at the 2012 Immigration Day celebrations at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) here today.

Yesterday, PAS vice-president Mahfuz Omar told reporters that he had received a "suspicious" letter allegedly signed by NRD director (identification card) division and addressed to state and district NRD officers throughout the country.

Mahfuz alleged that the letter that was signed by NRD director (identification card) division Md Solehan Omar and dated Dec 14 2012, had directed state and district NRD officers nationwide to send all uncollected identification cards (IC) to Sabah.
