KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 8— PAS’ Datuk Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man said today that legal action will be taken against Sarawak Report for claiming that top leaders from the Islamist party had accepted RM90 million from the prime minister.

The opposition party’s deputy president said the report by the London-based whistle-blower site was "fake” and "malicious”.

"PAS will take legal action against the malicious report that was meant to smear the good name of the party founded on Islam that is our core struggle,” he said in a statement.

Tuan Ibrahim said the report had defamed PAS and affected the people’s belief in the party.

Sarawak Report alleged in an article on August 6 that RM90 million was "reckoned” to have entered the accounts of top leaders of PAS.

The money transacted, it said, was one of Najib’s attempts to "woo” PAS leadership into supporting Barisan Nasional (BN) and Umno.
