#SHOWBIZ: Awie to Amy Search: 'Take responsibility, tell the truth'
KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian rock icon Datuk Awie has urged Datuk Amy of Search to step forward and provide a truthful explanation regarding an issue currently being hotly debated by netizens, which has also implicated him.
In a post on his Facebook page, the 57-year-old vocalist of the band Wings, whose real name is Ahmad Azhar Othman, said that Amy's explanation was crucial to clear his name.
He added that he was weary of continually explaining himself, especially as several netizens on social media had mentioned his name.
"Amy Search, tell the truth. Stop all these foolish people from accusing me. Take responsibility for this; tell the truth.
"I'm tired of having to read and answer for what you've done," he wrote.
However, Awie did not elaborate on the specific issue his name was associated with.
Earlier, the police confirmed receiving a report from singer Shila Amzah, who claimed she was publicly insulted by a legendary artiste during a concert rehearsal on Thursday.
In a Harian Metro report today, Kuala Lumpur Deputy Police Chief, Datuk Mohamed Usuf Jan Mohamad, confirmed that a report was made by Shila, whose real name is Nurshahila Amir Amzah, on July 10, at 5.31pm at the Dang Wangi Police Station.
Awie, Amy and Shila had performed together at the MR. D.I.Y 20th Anniversary concert, held at Stadium Merdeka, here, last night.
Awie's direct appeal to Amy now puts the onus on the 'Isabella' singer to shed light on the unfolding drama.
