KUALA LUMPUR: With a smile on his face, Sungai Besar Umno chief Datuk Jamal Md Yunos walked out of the Dang Wangi police station a free man at 8.30pm Saturday, a day after he was arrested.

Police did not seek remand for Jamal, who was picked up for making threats of a race-fueled riot in Petaling Street.
