Kuala Lampur, Nov. 20 -- Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today dismissed a viral message on WhatsApp claiming the PKR president was requesting media coverage for a meeting with the Yang di-Pertuan Agong in Istana Negara this morning.

The Port Dickson MP told reporters that the message was not from him as he has been in Parliament since morning.

"Ignore it because it's fake news. It's incorrect, this morning I was here," he said.

Anwar said the last time he had an audience with the King was three weeks ago.

"It was a normal meeting which we viralled on Facebook, at Istana Melawati. It was not a secret.

"This is an effort to pit by those without any strength. When you don't have any strength, you will use slander and lies," he added.

He hope...
