Free Malaysia Today reported that Indera Mahkota MP Saifuddin Abdullah urged Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim in the Dewan Rakyat not to appoint an Egyptian scholar to the government's new Islamic scholarship advisory council, citing the cleric's past support for a military general who overthrew a democratically elected president.
