Yusoff, 26, was summoned to the federal police headquarters to have his statement recorded as part of the investigation into his claims.Last Wednesday, Yusoff claimed that he had been sexually assaulted by Anwar during his time working as a researcher with the latter. He claimed the incident took place at the PKR president’s house in October last year during the Port Dickson by-election.Anwar has denied the allegations.
Haniff said police are currently investigating the case under Section 354 of the Penal Code for assault or use of criminal force to a person with intent to outrage modesty.Meanwhile, Yusoff said he has the support of his family. He brushed aside criticism of him by his grand uncle, Mohideen Abdul Kader, who had previously questioned the credibility of his claims.
"My family came out with a statement, I will leave it at that. I just hope people who are not part of my family will not get involved in this matter," he said.
