  "account": "KUALA PILAH, Sept 18 — The ruler of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Muhriz, received a memorandum of loyalty and support from the state’s Secretariat following his Friday prayers at the Tuanku Munawir Royal Mosque. Accompanied by his sons and other officials, including Datuk Klana Petra Muhammad Faris Johari and Datuk Sedia Raja Hassan Ab Hamid, Tuanku Muhriz expressed gratitude to the congregation of over 500 worshippers.\n\nDr Mohd Aluwi Sari, head of the Secretariat, emphasized the memorandum's importance in affirming the commitment to the royal institution, Constitution, Adat Perpatih, rule of law, and maintaining peace and harmony in the state. He warned that any content challenging the royal position would be professionally investigated, and appropriate action taken accordingly.\n\nThe Attorney-General's Chambers recently declared an April 19 proclamation invalid, stating it did not meet the mandatory requirements of Article 10 in the Laws of the Constitution of Negeri Sembilan 1959. The proclamation also denied the Menteri Besar and Negeri Sembilan State Executive Council the unilateral authority to depose Tuanku Muhriz or declare the position vacant.\n\nMeanwhile, the Negeri Sembilan Dewan Keadilan dan Undang (DKU) reaffirmed Tuanku Muhriz as the lawful Yang Dipertuan Besar and chairman of the council.",
