(The Edge) IPOH: Ousted Perak Speaker V Sivakumar will lodge a police report in connection with suspected firearms brought into the state assembly last week.
Speaking at a press conference at the DAP headquarters here today, Sivakumar said it was a serious offence to introduce firearms into the assembly hall.
"There is a special room at the state assembly for weapons to be deposited," he said.
"What would happen if someone in a fit of anger discharges a weapon?"
During the press conference, a video recording taken during the assembly showed an unidentified person reaching to his back and holding what is alleged to be a firearm.
He said by parliamentary convention, firearms are not permitted into the state assembly.
He also alleged that several unauthorised persons had entered the assembly without valid passes.
Also, a report had also been lodged against Jelapang assemblywoman Hee Yit Foong for allegedly brandishing a pepper spray during the fracas at the May 7 state assembly.
