Solidarity Anak Malaysia (SAMM) in Pahang, Penang dan Selangor today lodged separate police reports against forner prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad for allegedly making seditious statements against Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.
SAMM Pahang coordinator Amirul Syazwan Narzaruddin and SAMM Selangor coordinator, Megat Khairul Anuar said that the reports were related to statements made Dr Mahathir on his blog (www.chedet.cc) pertaining to several issues including the murder of Mongolian model, Altantuya Shaariibuu.
Other issues Dr Mahathir had highlighted on his blog included the debt-stricken 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) and the purchase of a private jet.
"Dr Mahathir's statements are obviously seditious in nature, encouraging people to hate the Prime Minister of Malaysia.
"Many opposition leaders have been investigated, arrested or even charged with sedition for raising the same issues.
"The question now is, why Dr Mahathir is untouchable and free to issue statements inciting hate towards the Prime Minister?" said the duo in their respective police reports lodged at the police headquarters in Beserah, Pahang and Kuala Kubu Bharu in Selangor, respectively.
They said the police reports lodged against Dr Mahathir were aimed to provide the police a period of 10 days for action to be taken against the statement made by him,
"He (Dr Mahathir) should, at least be summoned to the police station for his statements to be recorded," they added.
The duo also said that if no action is taken against the statement made by Dr Mahathir within the given period, then his action may be deemed acceptable.
As such, the police should also not take action against the others who had come up with similar statements.
Meanwhile, SAMM Penang coordinator Mohd Aidil Fitri Ibrahim told Astro AWANI that SAMM from other states will also lodge similar reports in coming days.
On Tuesday, Tun Mahathir in a posting on his blog stated that he had only queried about the person who had issued the instruction to the two police officers who were convicted of killing Mongolian model, Altantuya Shaariibuu.
