Inspector-general of police (IGP) Khalid Abu
Bakar is not intimidated by the death threat against him made by a group
known as 'Anak Malaysia Anti Demokrasi'.
He described their statement as irresponsible and criticised the group for not respecting parliamentary democracy in Malaysia.
"The threat made to assassinate me shows they do not know the real meaning of democracy, which has longed been practiced by the country.
"Such threats do not scare me as the IGP. Such threats are normal for policemen doing their job," he added in a statement.
It was reported earlier today that an anarchist group had threatened to assassinate the IGP by blowing up his car.
The threat was made via a YouTube video which was also uploaded on Facebook.
Khalid further said that he is concerned that the citizens did not want to use the proper channels available in a democracy to resolve their grievances. Instead they go against the law and their irresponsible actions had the potential to create chaos.
He further urged those who harbour such ill-intentions to immediately stop their actions which had serious security implications, and could affect the harmony of the various races in the country.
“Police are trying to identify the group with the assistance from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission.
“I will not hesitate to take stern action, based on the law on those wanting to upset the harmony of the country,” the IGP warned.
