  "account": "Negeri Sembilan's Yang Di Pertuan Tuanku Muhriz grew angry and refused to meet the state's Chief Minister Ismail Lasim, whose response was simply to bow his head. Amidst the constitutional crisis engulfing the state, which began in April when four individuals claiming to be leaders announced the dismissal of Tuanku Muhriz from the throne, video footage showed the ruler sternly telling a group of people that Ismail had sent a letter to the Sultan's Privy Council, clarifying that he was no longer the Yang Di Pertuan. Tuanku Muhriz then questioned Ismail's intention in meeting him, saying \"So (today) he wants to meet me for what? As long as he doesn't retract what he said earlier, don't come and see me. Go away,\" clearly visibly angry before turning away from Ismail. In response, Ismail could only raise his hands in blessing. The subsequent reprimand caused the congregation in the mosque to mutter \"Long Live Tuanku Negeri Sembilan\" amid the political turmoil since April, when the four individuals claiming to be leaders declared Tuanku Muhriz deposed as the state's ruler. One of the disputed groups also claimed to declare Tunku Nadzaruddin Tuanku Ja’afar as the new Yang Di Pertuan at a five-star hotel in Malacca in June. Last month, Ismail backed statements released by former colleagues who allegedly confirmed Tuanku Muhriz's dismissal. Tuanku Muhriz subsequently cancelled the entire former chief minister's appointment. FMT is seeking comment from Ismail regarding this incident.",
