State police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Zulkifli Abdullah said that so far two assemblymen had been called to give their statements. He did not name the two.
He said police were also looking for six men to assist in the investigations under Section 27 (5) of the Police Act for illegal assembly.
“More photographs will be released as and when they are available,” he said after witnessing the handing over of duties of the state CID chief from Asst Comm Zulkifli Hassan to Senior Asst Comm (II) Mohd Dzuraidi Ibrahim.

The Pakatan assemblymen led by Speaker V. Sivakumar had gathered at the State Secretariat to convene the “sitting.”
When they were not allowed into the building, the group proceeded to a vacant lot nearby and conducted the meeting under a tree.
On plans by Pakatan to file a case in court against the police for stopping the assembly sitting, DCP Zulkifli said: “We are a democratic country. If they want to file, go ahead.”
He stressed that police were merely carrying out their duties to ensure peace and harmony.
On another matter, DCP Zulkifli said 13 people had been charged over the ruckus during the swearing-in of new Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Dr Zambry Abd Kadir in Kuala Kangsar on Feb 6.
Four more – three men and a woman – were charged at the Kuala Kangsar magistrate’s court on Wednesday.
