KUALA LUMPUR – Police will be submitting to the Attorney-General’s Chambers (AGC) tomorrow three investigation papers into the Perikatan Nasional (PN)-led Save Malaysia rally held last weekend.
Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department (CID) chief Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain said the investigation papers involve statements recorded from 29 individuals linked with the gathering.
“One of the investigation papers is based on police’s own report of the gathering prior to the event taking place (on September 16),” Shuhaily told a press conference at the Bukit Aman police headquarters here today.
“The other investigation paper is based on investigations into the gathering on the day it happened and the final investigation paper is on statements under Section 505 (of the Penal Code).”
Section 505 of the Penal Code, which refers to statements conducing to public mischief and intent to incite, stipulates that those found guilty of the offence can be sentenced to up to two years’ imprisonment, a fine or both.
Last Saturday, around 850 individuals attended a rally organised by PN Youth and other political parties and non-governmental organisations to voice their dissatisfaction over the conditional discharge granted to Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
The rally included a procession to the Dang Wangi district police headquarters where the organising committee lodged a police report against the deputy prime minister’s discharge not amounting to an acquittal in his corruption trial.
Among those previously summoned by police for investigations into the rally are Muafakat Nasional supreme council member Datuk Tun Faisal and Bersatu’s Taman Medan assemblyman Dr Afif Bahardin.
Other rally attendees were Pejuang information chief Muhammad Rafique Rashid Ali and his PAS Youth counterpart Nadzir Helmi. – September 21, 2023
