BUKIT MERTAJAM: Penang Umno Youth has lodged a police report against Sarawak DAP chairman Chong Chieng Jen for his statement on the spate of shooting incidents in the country recently.

Its secretary Mohd Fauzi Sharif urged the Home Ministry to act against Chong for claiming that the shooting incidents were orchestrated by the Barisan Nasional (BN) goverment.

“It is a form of incitement and shows the immature politics of hate promoted by the opposition,” he told reporters after lodging a police report at Seberang Perai Tengah police headquarters, here yesterday.

Chong was quoted in a Sarawak English daily that the spate of shooting incidents was to allow the BN government to enact new laws to replace the Emergency Ordinance (EO). — Bernama
