THE Malaysia Ex-Police Association has lodged a police report against an individual who launched an online petition expressing a loss of confidence in Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah.

President Mokhtar Omar said the action of this individual was a form of treason, which incited people to hate the royal institution.

“We want police to conduct a thorough investigation against the individual who launched the petition and those supporting it,” he told reporters after lodging the report at the Dang Wangi district police headquarters in Kuala Lumpur today.

Mokhtar said the association would direct its branches at the state level to lodge similar reports.

According to him, a message circulated on WhatsApp showed that the petition had been signed by 1,295 individuals.

The petition is believed to have been deleted as a search by Bernama on the Change.org website failed to locate it.

Dang Wangi district police chief ACP Noor Dellhan Yahaya, when contacted, confirmed receiving the report. – Bernama, January 4, 2022.

  • He's is just another human being and is subject to mistakes. The police is so free to investigate such when there are even more urgent and more pressing issues remaining to be investigated? What has treason got to do in thgis case?
