Early today, his two-storey house at Jalan Jelutong KU/8 in Pekan Meru here was found splashed with red paint, including the main gate, pillars and floor of the car porch.
Also spattered with the paint were his Proton Perdana and Toyota Estima Multi-Purpose Vehicle which were parked in the porch.
Manikavasagam also found a threatening note written on A4-sized paper, warning him to stay out of sand mining issues in the state.
He told reporters that he only discovered the red paint 'attack' on his house at 7.30am, while making coffee.
The state assemblyman said he was grateful his family of six was not injured in the incident at the house where he had lived for the past 10 months.
"This is the first time such an incident has occured in the 10 years I have been involved in politics. I believe it is related to the sand mining graft claims I had made," he added.
He said he would not withdraw graft allegations against Kumpulan Semesta Sdn Bhd (KSSB) which involved some senior officials in the company.
Meanwhile, Selangor acting CID chief ACP Omar Mammah, when contacted, said police believed more than one person was responsible for the incident at Manikavasagam's house.
He said that a threatening note and three paint-filled plastic packets were found at the premises.
