  "account": "Negeri Sembilan's Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim has accused Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail of coercion for allegedly forcing him to sign a proclamation document under duress. Police have recorded statements from four individuals regarding this claim, and the investigation paper was submitted to the Attorney General's Chambers on September 29. Saifuddin informed the House of Representatives on October 21 that the police are awaiting further instructions from the AGC before proceeding with any follow-up actions. This investigation is part of an ongoing dispute stemming from a proclamation made on April 19, in which four Undang announced the removal of Tuanku Muhriz and proclaimed Tunku Nadzaruddin as the new Yang di-Pertuan Besar. The legal battle has intensified, with the Dewan Keadilan dan Undang and its secretary seeking leave to commence committal proceedings against Ismail, 10 former state executive councillors, and six others, alleging that they breached an interim injunction granted by the Seremban High Court on June 5.",
