KUALA KUBU BARU: Selangor Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali has pledged to "tell all" on May 11 over the circumstances which led to the Selangor menteri besar lodging a police report against him.

He claimed the police report was lodged following his allegations of misappropriation in the Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS).

Speaking at Perikatan Nasional's (PN) announcement of its candidate for the Kuala Kubu Baharu by-election last night, Azmin, who is also the Hulu Kelang assemblyman, claimed the police report was filed to silence him.

He said the police report would not deter him from making further "disclosures."

"Now the police are looking for me. Wait until May 11, I will ensure that whatever the state government does, abusing power to silence PN, will be exposed," he was quoted as saying.

During the state assembly session last March, Azmin had asked the Selangor government to explain PKNS' sale of development rights to PJ Sentral, which was expected to yield returns of RM1.04 billion, to Malaysian Resources Corporation Berhad (MRCB) for RM270 million.

Azmin had also cited a media report on Feb 29 which stated that property developer Tropicana Corporation Bhd had acquired a leasehold land in Kota Damansara for RM224 million.

However, Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari had dismissed claims that PKNS's financial performance was in dire straits and burdened with debts amounting to RM5.7 billion.

He said PKNS's financial position was good, and it still profits from its main operating income.

Amirudin said the decision to sell the development rights of PJ Sentral was made to break free from the 'cash flow trap'.
