Negeri Umno exco in gun shot scandal

A DAP leader claims that a state exco member had discharged his weapon last Thursday. The police are investigating the matter.

SEREMBAN: A Negeri Sembilan state exco member is under police investigation for allegedly firing his pistol at his home in Seremban on Thursday night.

It could not be ascertained if anyone was injured as a result of his action but FMT learnt that the Umno politician fired his weapon following a personal problem involving a close relative.

The matter was revealed to the media today (Sunday) by DAP’s MP for Rasah Anthony Loke who questioned the delay of police action against the Umno exco man.

“I got to know that the exco member fired a shot at his home. The police took swift action when Opposition Leader Anwar Ibrahim’s bodyguard aimed his gun at individuals who provoked by trying to stop the latter’s car in Jasin last week.

“I urge the police to thoroughly investigate if the Negeri Sembilan incident really happened and take immediate action against the state exco,” said Loke who is also the DAP national youth chief.

When contacted Seremban district police chief OCPD ACP Saiful Azly Kamarudin said the matter was under investigation.

FMT also learnt that the state exco and another person had lodged separate police reports over the incident.
