The former inspector-general of police said it was an old snapshot of him posing at his friend's stall some time back.
"I visited my good friend's stall and a passer-by took the photo. My friend sells vegetables, meat and fish at his stall. He previously sold vegetables from my farm as well," he said when contacted on Wednesday ."I have experience selling vegetables from my farm at markets in Seremban, as well as mini-markets in Seremban, Rembau and Kajang. It is nothing to be ashamed of. It's all halal so I might as well admit it," he added.
On Sunday , Twitter user Mohamad Yusof Yahya uploaded a photo showing Abdul Hamid with a notebook and pen at a stall selling vegetables.Would others be as brave? He is not ashamed at all. Salute to you," he wrote. After learning of Abdul Hamid's clarification, Mohamad Yusof tweeted that the first impression he got from the photo was that the ex-IGP was selling the produce since it was widely known that he owned a farm.
"If he is not selling vegetables and instead sits with his friends, shows that he is accepted by the public," he said.
