“Rafizi had organised a press conference on Monday and accused me of appointing my ‘brother’ as the main contractor of the Expo Negaraku project. “He confidently asserted that he had undertaken thorough research and various investigations, the result of which proved that Raslan Dahlan, who is the chief executive officer of PICO Integrated Exhibit Sdn Bhd, was indeed my ‘brother’. Rahman said, like countless other statements by Rafizi, this was another blatant lie that does not suit to his (Rafizi’s) position as a member of parliament. Rahman said he was aggrieved by the fact that Rafizi had accused Economic Planning Unit (EPU) officers of leaking incorrect information in an attempt to create conflict. I also have evidence that Rafizi had contacted Raslan immediately after his press conference, via Facebook message, asking whether he was actually my brother.
