Perlis mufti Datuk Dr Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin who is reportedly under probe for a Facebook posting on Bersih, said he is sharing a room with Inspector General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Abu Bakar during a pilgrimage to Mecca.
"Today marks the third day of my pilgrimage in Mecca. We are guests of Raja Salam Abu Aziz," he wrote on his Facebook, referring to Saudi Arabia's King.
“My roommate is Khalid Abu Bakar, the Inspector-General of Police. Interesting to chat with him and share experiences," he wrote.
