‘Agbomuddin still in Sabah’—Kiram spokesperson

LAHAD DATU—The spokesperson of Sultan Jamalul Kiram III on Friday denied the claim of Malaysia’s top security forces that Rajah Mudah Agbomuddin Kiram has left Sabah.

“That’s only a propaganda by Malaysia. They’re saying that so as not to disturb their elections. I don’t have to explain that,” Abraham Idjirani said in a phone interview.

Idjirani said he last spoke to Agbimuddin at 2 p.m. Friday and that the leader of the Royal Army remains in Sabah.
