Raja Petra Kamarudin being investigated under the Sedition Act

Raja Petra ordered to report to Bukit Aman at 11.00am tomorrow

At 9.00am today, seven police officers from the Cyber Crime Division, Bukit Aman, went to Raja Petra’s house to confiscate his PC and notebook computer. They left at 11.00am after issuing Raja Petra a notice to report to Bukit Aman at 11.00am tomorrow, Saturday, 3 May 2008.

According to the police, Raja Petra is being investigated under the Sedition Act with regards to an article he wrote, Let’s send the Altantuya murderers to hell. It seems a police report has been made against Raja Petra by another police officer.

The Bukit Aman Cyber Crime Division is at Kompleks Perdana, the old office of the Prime Minister behind Bank Negara.

We have no further news but Raja Petra will try to update the latest developments once he can get his hand on a new computer.

(AGENDA DAILY) - Pengendali laman web Malaysia Today yang sering mencetuskan kontroversi , Raja Petra Kamarudin pagi ini ‘dikunjungi’ oleh enam tetamu yang tidak diundang.

Keenam-enam tetamu berkenaan adalah pegawai polis yang datang bagi melakukan siasatan terhadap satu kes yang difahamkan ada kaitan dengan penulisannya.

Polis berada di kediamannya di Sungai Buloh kira-kira satu jam sebelum beredar meninggalkan rumah berkenaan dengan membawa bersama komputer peribadi milik Raja Petra.

Selain itu menurut sumber dan teman rapat Raja Petra yang berjaya menghubungi beliau selepas polis meninggalkan kediamannya berkata, Raja Petra memberitahu polis datang ke rumahnya bagi menyiasat satu tulisan yang dikatakan mempersoalkan satu kes yang sedang dibicarakan di mahkamah.

Sehubungan itu, Raja Petra telah diminta untuk melaporkan diri ke ibu pejabat polis Bukit Aman, esok jam 11 pagi bagi membantu siasatan polis.

Ini bukan kali pertama Raja Petra dipanggil polis kerana tahun lalu beliau turut dipanggil member keterangan ekoran satu laporan polis yang dibuat terhadap laman webnya yang dikatakan menyiarkan tulisan menghina Yang di-Pertuan Besar Negeri Sembilan pada tahu 2004 dan Yang di-Pertuan Agong pada 2007.

Terbaru bulan lalu, Mahkamah Tinggi Alor Setar mengarahkan Raja Petra membayar RM2 juta kepada plaintif pertama, Naib Canselor Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), Dr. Nordin Kardi, dan RM2 juta lagi kepada plaintif kedua, UUM, berhubung penyiaran artikel bertajuk Dato Dr. Nordin Kardi Ciplak Karya Saya? Mohon Penjelasan dalam laman webnya, www.malaysia-today.net.

  1. Honestly, this is a case of state terrorism. If it had happened to an ordinary person (the aggrieved party), he would have sought the help of the lawyers and sue the pants of the person who wrote the article for libel. So the question is, why is the police involved in a simple civil case of libel/slander? Unless the party at the receiving end happens to be somebody, I doubt very much the police would act. Come on, PDRM, you have more important jobs to do than to go around arresting people who is none of your business.

  2. 'Polis Diraja Malaysia' should be changed to 'Polis Raja DiMalaysia' or 'Polis UMNO Malaysia' to better reflect their actual duties.
