  "account": "Negri Sembilan's former chief minister Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun stated he did not have the power to release the minutes from the Dewan Keadilan dan Undang (DKU) meeting. Despite attending the meeting, Aminuddin claimed he had no right to request DKU secretary to provide the meeting minutes concerning the dismissal of then Undang Luak Sungei Ujong Datuk Mubarak Dohak on April 17. These minutes have not been verified yet. Aminuddin emphasized that he was just a member who attended the meeting and had no authority to ask the DKU secretary for the minutes until they were confirmed. He warned that this issue would not disappear simply because the chief minister was present at the meeting. Aminuddin argued that the meeting minutes were confidential information that could only be declassified by the DKU, chaired by the Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negri Sembilan. He appealed to Umno, specifically Seri Menanti assemblyman Muhammad Sufian Maradzi, to review the Negri Sembilan Constitution and the DKU before making statements. Aminuddin hoped Umno would cease its political maneuvers while the public remained anxious and concerned. The issue was reported recently that Sufian had called for the release of the DKU meeting minutes from April 17, describing them as the most critical point in the crisis.",
