巫统宣传主任丹斯里安努亚慕沙日前指责净选盟主席玛丽亚陈与美国中央情报局有瓜葛的事件，对于安努亚慕沙空口说白话的行为，我感到很遗憾，因为，在警方未公布任何调查结果之前，或即便公布调查，我们都不能先下判决，这是于法不合，于理不顺的做法，不仅涉嫌妨害司法，也只能为我国的司法再添一桩不公案列。
我也在此公开挑战安努亚慕沙以法定宣誓公开重复他的指责，以彰显他说的是真话，同时亦表现他勇于对自己的谈话负责，否则，他就应该闭嘴，然后静待警方把案件查个水落石出，再交由法庭断定。

Phang dares Annuar to repeat his allegation that Maria has CIA link in an affidavit
KOTA KINABALU, November 24, 2016: Renowned philanthropist cum social activist Tan Sri Robert Phang Miow Sin has dared Umno information chief Tan Sri Annuar Musa to make an affidavit that Bersih 2.0 chairperson Maria Chin Abdullah has links with the United States' Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).
“Otherwise keep your mouth shut and let the police continue with their investigation. Do not create gross interference in the proceedings,” Phang added.
In a brief statement issued in Petaling Jaya today, the Chairman of Social Care Foundation (SCF) expressed regret that Annuar had passed his own judgment on Maria when the police have yet to wrap up their investigations on Maria.
“Even if the police have made public the outcome of the instigations, it is still legally inappropriate for us to make any judgment as, such an action will pose an adverse implication on our judiciary.
“Being a country under the rule of law, we must always respect and trust the professionalism of our police force, and stop interfering in their ongoing investigations,” said Phang who is also Chairman of the Malaysia Crime Prevention Foundation, Outreach Committee.
He thus urged politicians in the country, especially those holding positions in the Federal Cabinet and the government, to be more cautious and thoughtful when making statements on issues which concern the country and its people, so as not to make the country an international laughing stock.
To recap, in his Facebook posting on Wednesday, Annuar claimed that Maria was linked to the CIA due to the works she had conducted with several US NGOs prior to her returning to Malaysia with her late husband, Yunus Lebai Ali, in the 1980s.
“Maria and Yunus returned to Malaysia around the 1980s and prior to that they were involved with several NGOs such as the National Institute for Electoral Integrity (NIEI), which is under the sponsorship of Asia Foundation.
“And Asia Foundation is a network under The National Citizens’ Movement for Free Elections (Namfrel) and Asian Network for Free and Fair Elections (Anfrel) to which former CIA agent Philip Agee had previously disclosed that both Namfrel and Anfrel were ‘CIA tools’ that masked behind the slogan of ‘people power’,” he said.
Annuar also noted that Maria was also involved in other human rights and feminist NGOs that were pro-LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender).
He thus opined that Maria was not an ordinary person but someone whose background should be further examined.
Maria was arrested by the police last Friday, on the eve of Bersih 5 rally, and is currently detained for 28 days under Security Offences (Special Measures) Act (Sosma).
She is being investigated under Section 1124C of the Penal Code for activities deemed detrimental to parliamentary democracy.
