Hindu Rights Action Force (Hindraf) legal advisor M Manoharan (pic) urged Pakatan Rakyat Indian leaders to place community interest first instead of focusing on their self enrichment.
Speaking at the book launch of the life story of Hindraf leader P Uthayakumar, Manoharan said Pakatan Indian leaders have to buck up to serve the community.
Manoharan said they should not disappoint the people who trusted them and voted for Pakatan in the past election.
He said they must emulate Uthayakumar, that has put his self interest aside by fighting for the Indian community.
“Please do not use the community name for your personal agenda,”
“Stop the dramas ,” he urged
Manoharan said Pakatan Indian leaders are not sincere in serving the community likewise Uthayakumar.
He said Uthayakumar is a legend and still concerned about the community despite being held in the Kajang Prison.
Uthayakumar was arrested over a sedition charge and was placed in the Kajang prison last May.
Manoharan is confident that Uthayakumar will win his case during the next court hearing on January 15 and really hopes that the Indian community to be behind him as he sacrificed a lot for them.
He also defended Uthayakumar saying that he had never used the Indian community for his personal agenda as claimed by certain quarters.
Meanwhile Uthayakumar’s wife S Indra Devi, who was also present in the event, during her speech said that even though she is going through a hard time being without her husband she is still proud of him.
She hopes the community will appreciate her husband’s sacrifice.
