An anonymous letter with mysterious orange powder was sent to Perkasa's office.
KUALA LUMPUR: Perkasa today received a envelope containing a threatening letter and unidentified orange powder.
Perkasa secretary-general, Syed Hassan Syed Ali, said that he noticed the letter when he retrieved the mail from the post box this morning.
The letter was addressed to Perkasa president, Ibrahim Ali, and bore a “NMC Shah Alam” postage mark.
“When I opened the envelope I noticed that the paper inside was stained orange,” he told FMT. “I unfolded the letter and saw that it was packed with orange powder.”
“The letter was a computer printout typed in Bahasa Malaysia by Gerakan Melayu Dinamik. I have never heard of that group before. The contents were verbally abusive and lambasted Perkasa for trying to be a hero to Malays.”
Syed Hassan said that he only managed to read the two-page letter halfway because his fingers touched the powder and started to burn. He lodged a report at the Dang Wangi police headquarters at 4pm today.
“I’m not sure what the power is but my fingers are still burning,” he said. “Whoever wrote that letter harbours uncontrollable rage for Perkasa to resort to something like this. But there were no threats made against any individual.”
“We don’t want to speculate on the culprit. Let the police investigate it. But we’re taking it very seriously and will be extra careful with the mail from now on.”
When asked for his response, Ibrahim issued a terse reply via text message which simply read, “Poisonous powder.”
