Sabah STAR will not shield any members involved in wrongdoings, says Dr Jeffrey

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah STAR gives no special treatment to wrongdoers, says Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan. The party president said Sabah STAR fights for justice and equality, particularly for the rights of the natives in Sabah, and will not shield any members involved in any wrongdoings. He expressed regret that the incident, which involved an Unduk Ngadau contestant, has caused distress among STAR members and exposed the party to heavy attacks. A senior leader of Sabah STAR was arrested for allegedly molesting a participant at the just concluded state-level cultural pageant, amid a call to other contestants to come forward if they were similarly accosted. Phillip Among, who was suspended as Putatan Sabah STAR parliamentary coordinator, was arrested on Thursday (June 3), shortly after he gave a press conference denying the accusation.
