Royalty or not?: The luxurious car of the self-proclaimed Sultan of Malacca Raja Noor Jan (inset). The car has been seized by the police.

MALACCA: The self-proclaimed Sultan of Malacca Tuanku Raja Noor Jan Shah Raja Tuah wants the so-called investiture ceremonies organised by the Undang Luak of Naning Datuk Abdul Latif Hisham to be declared null and void.

He claimed that the title was given to the Naning chieftain by the Dutch in the 1800s as a mark of gratitude for supplying labour to mend the Malacca port then and that the holder has no royal blood.
