PKR chief says Yahaya Ismail is a mercenary writer whose books never made it to the mainstream.

Yahaya is accused by the FT branch of attempting to extort money from Anwar to halt publication.

‘If Anwar is not interested, don’t buy the book… what’s the problem?’ author Yahaya Ismail says.

The person who wrote the book was hired… action must be taken, says the PKR chief.
