Who coerced you to sign proclamation, Negeri Sembilan MB asked
DAP's Syahredzan Johan says this new development now involves the continuity and security of the nation's rulers and institutions.
Negeri Sembilan Chief Minister Ismail Lasim claimed he signed a proclamation aimed at removing Tuanku Muhriz as the state ruler under pressure, and has reported the incident to the police. DAP vice-chairman Syahredzan Johan urged Ismail to disclose the identity of the individual or individuals who forced him to sign the document.
The Straits Times previously reported that top Umno leaders may have been involved in this episode. Ismail has urged the authorities to investigate the allegations, stating that the issue now extends beyond Negeri Sembilan and concerns the continuity and security of the nation's rulers and institutions. At a recent press conference, four purported undangs presented a document containing the proclamation, which they claimed Ismail and the four chieftains had signed on August 3.
The chieftains disputed their positions. Ismail previously stated he signed the document under duress and lodged a police report for an investigation, while rejecting the document's validity as it did not adhere to the procedures outlined in Article 10 of the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959.
