KOTA BARU: PAS spiritual leader Datuk Nik Aziz Nik Mat has invited Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak to an open debate to find a solution to the prolonged political standoff between PAS and Umno.

The Kelantan mentri besar said an official letter would be sent to Najib, who is Umno president, soon.

Speaking to reporters here, Nik Aziz said the idea for the open debate came following a police report lodged by Kelantan Umno Youth, claiming that his ceramah on June 21 was seditious.

He said the two parties should discuss issues directly instead of through the media. — Bernama
