PENANG, Sun: April 27, 2008
The Penang police are asking their Johor counterparts to investigate a death threat made on an Internet website against DAP national chairman Karpal Singh.
Penang acting chief police officer Datuk Salleh Mat Rasid said although a police report on the threat was lodged in Penang, the case was being referred to Johor Police because it was made in the state.
He told this to reporters after closing a seminar on integrity for police personnel conducted by Anti-Corruption Agency director-general, Datuk Seri Ahmad Said Hamdan.
Karpal Singh, who is also the Member of Parliament for Bukit Gelugor, lodged a report on the matter at the Penang police headquarters at 2.30pm yesterday.
The person who made the threat had alleged that it was permissible under Islam to kill Karpal Singh because the latter had allegedly opposed Malaysia being turned into an Islamic state. — BERNAMA
