Police probing vandalism of Penang PKR chief’s car


POLICE are investigating the vandalism of Penang PKR Youth chief Fahmi Zainol’s car while it was parked at his home in Kampung Baru today.

Seberang Perai Tengah police chief Shafee Abd Samad said the Fahmi discovered that the windscreen of his Toyota Vios was smashed this morning. A brick, believed to have been used to inflict the damage, was found nearby.

“He said that he doesn’t owe anyone money and has no enemies. Since he is active in politics, he fears that certain parties might be unhappy with him. Investigations found nothing was missing from his car,” Shafee said in a statement.

He said police have opened an investigation paper on the case under Section 427 of the Penal Code for committing mischief and causing damage.

Fahmi, who is a Seberang Perai city councillor, said he would leave it to the police to find the culprit.

“In my years of involvement in politics, this is the first time such an incident has occurred. If it was meant to scare me, then it’s an extreme and outdated action,” he said. – Bernama, June 1, 2020.
