SHAH ALAM - Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's photographer Sadiq Asyraf apologises to Tanah Merah Member of Parliament Datuk Seri Ikmal Hisham Abdul Aziz following allegations of smoking electronic cigarettes or vaping in the Dewan Rakyat.

Sadiq made the apology through a post on the social site X on Friday.

"I apologise to YB Datuk Seri (Ikmal) if there is a misconception of the object he is holding as a vape.

"I hope that all misunderstandings can be resolved harmoniously," he wrote.

Previously, the photo went viral on social media after Sadiq uploaded the image on X.

Following that, Ikmal had denied the claims and considered taking legal action against the photographer.

"Everyone knows I'm not a smoker, I can't even sit next to a smoker, not to mention smoking and vaping is far away from me," he was reportedly said.
