KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 5 — PKR vice-president Rafizi Ramli has questioned Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan’s neutrality as a civil society leader after the prominent lawyer criticised the federal Opposition party for airing its internal squabbles publicly ahead of the 14th General Elections.
He called Ambiga’s remarks “unfair, biased and misinformed”, claiming that she was echoing views held by his rivals in PKR who sought to include PAS in the Pakatan Harapan pact despite objections from allying parties.

He called Ambiga’s remarks “unfair, biased and misinformed”, claiming that she was echoing views held by his rivals in PKR who sought to include PAS in the Pakatan Harapan pact despite objections from allying parties.
“I am not surprised [at] her views because she had always been against Pakatan Harapan (PH) from day one,” Rafizi told Malay Mail Online when contacted for response to her remarks last week.
“I feel Ambiga should have engaged more leaders from PKR and PH to get a more balanced view and assessment, because currently her views are confined to what she gets from… (Anwar’s lawyers).
“Being a civil society leader, while she is entitled to her views, she cannot be seen as endorsing a particular faction’s view just because she is closer to them,” the Pandan MP added.
Ambiga chided PKR on social media last week after its senior political bureau members aired their disagreement on whether or not to continue electoral negotiations with PAS with time pressing in.

Whoa whoa whoa! Now, do we know who Anwar's lawyers are?
Aren't they the threesome, our dear 3 lil' Indians from PKR, namely, N Surendran, Sivarasa Rasiah and Latheefa Koya, she who was Kerala-born (but according to the Mukhriz Fan Club, Malayalee's were from Yemen).

I hope Rafizi Ramli was not suggesting Ambiga listened to them because she was personally close to them ... er ... being fellow lawyers?
Prominent lawyer Americk Singh Sidhu, who together with Sivarasa Rasiah had played roles significantly in the P. Balasubramanian - Altantuyaa - SD's saga, described lawyers as of a 'historically noble profession' - for more, see my post Americk Singh's fellow member of a historically noble profession, wakakaka.
