Amran claimed that DAP was plotting to distribute tens of thousands of videos and pamphlets containing slanderous allegations against Barisan Nasional and Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
On Saturday, Amran told a press conference that the “malicious” propaganda materials would be disseminated in stages ahead of the Wednesday polling day.
Amran had also claimed that among the materials that were being distributed included issues on 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB), GST, Felda, Tabung Haji and other matters pertaining to government agencies, the economy, expressway concessionaires and government projects.
