Selangor police chief Khalid Abu Bakar said today Ean Yong Hian Wah's statement in the media directing the police to cease their investigation of Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng seemed like an attempt to intimidate the police.
WOW!!!! This is certainly news to me and I am sure, to many Malaysians too, that an ordinary ADUN like Ean Yong could possess such powers to intimidate the police, our police, you know - Polis Di Raja Malaysia? Now let's see what the 20th Century Chambers Dictioonary has to say about the word "Intimidate" : to strike fear into; to influence by threats or violence; compel the consent of another.
Now if we were to look again at the definition, it would appear that it aptly applies to the police than to an ordinary ADUN like YB Ean Yong. The feeling of being intimidated must have been so overpowering that Khalid had to resort to releasing such a ridiculous press statement to make himself look even more silly. There is a saying: "It is better to shut your mouth and appear like a fool than to open it and remove all doubts."
If Ean Yong could possess such powers enough to intimidate the police, I can imagine the powers of Lim Kit Siang and Karpal Singh.
Seri Kembangan state assemblyman Ean Yong Hian Wah is to be called up by the police over a statement he had made which allegedly intimidated the police.
Selangor police chief Khalid Abu Bakar said today Hian Wah's statement in the media directing the police to cease their investigation of Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng seemed like an attempt to intimidate the police.
"I wish to stress that the honourable member should not try to intimidate us by directing us to cease the investigation of Guan Eng," he told reporters at a gathering between the people and the police in Kuala Lumpur.
He said Hian Wah would be called up soon to have a statement recorded to help in an investigation under Section 506 of the Penal Code and the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.
Khalid had said earlier that the Penang chief minister would be questioned for claiming, at the Pakatan Rakyat convention in Shah Alam on Dec 19, that Selangor political aide Teoh Beng Hock, who died after a fall at the Plaza Masalam in Shah Alam, was murdered.
