While Penang Deputy Chief Minister II P Ramasamy described blogger Papagomo's attack on his boss' family as "animal behaviour", political opponent has condemned allegations against Lim Guan Eng's young son as "despicable and unsubstantiated".
State Gerakan vice-chief Ong Thean Lye expressed sympathy with the Penang chief minister and his family over the online allegations involving his 16-year-old son.
The allegations were "despicable, unsubstantiated" as well as went against the spirit of fair play and ethics, Ong said.
"We do not condone such an act of making false allegations, particularly on children of politicians," said Ong, who is also political secretary to Gerakan president Koh Tsu Koon.
"Please do not drag family or children into politics," he urged in a statement today.
Ong was responding to the recent episode where Lim's son was accused by a number of pro-Umno bloggers, in particular Papagomo, of outraging the modesty of a female schoolmate.
Accusations untrue, says school principal
SMJK Heng Ee principle Goh Boon Poh, where Lim's son formerly studied, has denied the allegation, saying the accusations were all untrue.
Lim also received support from an unlikely source - Women, Family and Community Development Minister Shahrizat Abdul Jalil - who said children should not be dragged into political mud-slinging.
Lim is incensed by the allegation, first highlighted in a pro-Umno blog by blogger Dr MiM - who blogs at novandri.blogspot.
Penang Gerakan has broken ranks with other component parties in BN before, when it condemned a demonstration outside the Penang legislative assembly in May last year.
Gerakan nie nak menang pada PRU 13 atau tidak?Pening kepala dibuatnya yang blogger persoalkan ialah duit 200k yang diberi untuk sattle kes tersebut.Selain dari itu cuma umpan untuk kantoikan LGE.Jika begini layanan yang diberikan oleh pemimpin BN kepada blogger patut Gomo telah luahkan isi hatinya dalam blog beliau:
Jangan kata selepas PRU13. Sekarang ni pun kami seakan sampah yang membuat pendedahan,cetus isu,perang pakatan dan berbagai bagai hanya dikerah keringat untuk mereka yang berkepentingan.
Apa pun yang berlaku Anwar Ibrahim dan ideologinya akan terus diperangi sehingga nafas yang terakhir. READ MORE
