PKR VP: Fire councillor who accepted sexual favours
By IVAN LOH
(The Star) IPOH: PKR vice-president Dr Lee Boon Chye has urged the Perak government to sack Perak Tengah district councillor Zul Hassan after he had admitted to having accepted sexual favours.
Dr Lee said it was “morally incorrect” for a person who holds public office to be involved in such a scandal.
“When something inappropriate is offered, you should reject it,” he said after opening a blood donation campaign here on Sunday.
He said the state executive council should remove Zul from the Perak Tengah district council as early as the next state exco meeting.
Dr Lee however declined to comment on whether the party itself would take action against Zul, a PKR member.
Zul and businessman Fairul Azrim Ismail had recently lodged a report at the state religious department against Mohammad Imran Abdullah for “encouraging them to commit a sinful act” with a woman from China in Batu Ferringhi, Penang on Aug 14.
Mohamad Imran is the complainant in a corruption case in which Zul and four others are the accused.
Zul had reportedly told pressmen: “What is important is we did not ask for the women. He (Mohammad Imran) supplied them to us.
“If people sedekah (donate), don’t you want to accept it?” he had supposedly said.

Politicians(official bearers) who are involved in sex scandals of any kind which been proven, then they must be removed without any due considerations at all. This type of politicians betrayed their duties and trust to their family(wives) and how can we trust them to fulfill the duties to the public at large.
