Disagreement over the Negeri Sembilan ruler has intensified, prompting calls for the arrest of Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar and several members of the state executive council. The conflict has evolved from a legal dispute over an April 19 proclamation, to a public confrontation featuring supporters gathering at the airport and mosques.
About 200 individuals waited for Tuanku Muhriz at Kuala Lumpur International Airport on Thursday night, chanting "Daulat Tuanku" and expressing their love for the ruler with yellow T-shirts. When Tuanku Muhriz arrived, the crowd followed his car and chanted "tangkap penderhaka," demanding the arrest of traitors. Similar scenes unfolded at a mosque in Seri Menanti, where more than 500 supporters gathered for Friday prayers, chanting the same slogan and displaying banners urging action against those accused of undermining the ruler.
Legal challenges to the legitimacy of the April 19 proclamation and the legitimacy of Nadzaruddin's claim to the throne have not been resolved, but the dispute has now become a public demonstration of support for Tuanku Muhriz, with authorities and scholars divided on the matter.
