  "account": "Police have recorded statements from four individuals regarding Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Datuk Ismail Lasim's claim that he was coerced into signing a proclamation document, Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail confirmed on October 21. The investigation paper was submitted to the Attorney General's Chambers on September 29, and authorities are awaiting further instructions from the AGC. The document pertains to a proclamation involving Negeri Sembilan's Yang di-Pertuan Besar, Tuanku Muhriz. This investigation is part of a larger dispute that began with a proclamation on April 19, in which four Undang (chieftains) removed Tuanku Muhriz and proclaimed Tunku Nadzaruddin as the 12th Yang di-Pertuan Besar. The legal battle has intensified, with the Dewan Keadilan dan Undang and its secretary filing a leave application on October 15 to commence committal proceedings against Ismail, 10 former state executive councillors, and six others. The application claims that these individuals acted in breach of an interim injunction issued by the Seremban High Court on June 5. Saifuddin has assured that the investigation will be conducted professionally, transparently, and strictly in accordance with the law, without favoring any party.",
