Shah Alam MP Khalid Samad has pleaded not guilty to a sedition charge today over his remarks on the Selangor Sultan and the Selangor Islamic Affairs Council (Mais), making him the third opposition politician to be charged for seditious and defamatory remarks in the last seven days.
PKR vice-president N. Surendran was charged for sedition on August 19 over his remarks on opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's sodomy trial.
Former Perak MB Datuk Seri Nizar Jamaluddin, who is also from PAS, was charged yesterday for defaming Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak in a speech two years ago.
Present at court to support Khalid were former Bar president Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan, PAS deputy president Mohamad Sabu and PAS central committee member Dr Hatta Ramli.
