‘Humiliated’ Tajuddin to sue those who soiled his reputation

He was sacked as Prasarana chairman after coming under fire over a press conference following the LRT crash.

Tajuddin Abdul Rahman was criticised for being insensitive at a press conference on the LRT accident, leading to calls for his resignation.
PETALING JAYA:
Tajuddin Abdul Rahman plans to sue those who tarnished his reputation over the Light Rail Transit (LRT) accident last month.

According to a Bernama report, Tajuddin, who was sacked as Prasarana Malaysia Bhd chairman after coming under heavy criticism for remarks he made at a press conference on the accident, said he was “humiliated”.

“This is not fair. I deny all allegations and will take legal action against certain parties,” he said. The report did not specify who these parties were.

Tajuddin’s sacking came two days after the LRT accident that left 213 injured. It was the worst incident involving the Kelana Jaya line since it first started operations as the Putra line in 1996.

Subsequently, Tajuddin was criticised for being insensitive and rude during his press conference, leading to calls for his sacking.
