Tony Pua arrives at Bukit Aman to have statement recorded


KUALA LUMPUR: DAP's Tony Pua has arrived at Bukit Aman to have his statement recorded in connection with his recent comments on the sentence reduction for former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak.

Phua, who was accompanied by a lawyer and others including DAP chairman Lim Guan Eng, arrived at the Federal police headquarters here around 12.50pm on Monday (Feb 5).

Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Razarudin Husain has previously said that investigations had been launched after the former Damansara MP's comments, which were uploaded to his Facebook page, allegedly insulting the royal institution.

He said the comments had “elements of inciting the public to hate and insult the royal institutions”, in particular the rights of the Yang di-Pertuan Agong enshrined under Article 42 of the Federal Constitution.

Investigations are being conducted by the Special Investigation Unit (USJT).
