Umno Youth, NGOs Lodge Report Against Mohammad Nizar
JOHOR BAHARU, May 30 (Bernama) -- Pulai Umno Youth and several non-governmental organisations (NGOs) have lodged a police report against former Perak menteri besar Datuk Seri Mohammad Nizar Jamaluddin over his "rude" statement on the Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim.
The report was lodged by Pulai Umno Youth executive secretary Asyik Rahmat at the Tampoi police station at 9.30pm yesterday.
"We, as the people of Johor, are angry and offended by Mohammad Nizar's statement, implying that the Johor Sultan had misused public funds in the purchase of the WWW1 plate number," he told a press conference, here, last night.
Also at the press conference were over 50 representatives and members of Pulai Perkasa, Pekida of Kempas Zone, Skudai Kiri Rukun Tetangga and Persatuan Dewan Belia Jaya.
Yesterday, the Tunku Mahkota of Johor, Tunku Ismail Idris in response to Mohammad Nizar's statement, said the plate number was purchased with the Sultan's personal money and not public funds.
