PETALING JAYA: Constitutional law expert Abdul Aziz Bari has registered his surprise at being called to the Bukit Aman police headquarters earlier today to have his statement recorded for urging the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and the Conference of Rulers to take action following the US Department of Justice’s (DOJ) lawsuits linked to 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB).
Speaking to FMT, Aziz said he was questioned for half an hour this morning.
“The police said I was being investigated under the Sedition Act and for embarrassing the Rulers,” he said.
“They called me. They asked me a few questions. I answered whatever was required of me. I will give my cooperation to them,” he added.
Aziz said he was surprised however at being called in by the police as his statements last week did not call for any violence or even for the people to take their frustrations to the streets.
“My statements were only about urging the Rulers to take action. I did not ask anyone to stage a protest or (create) violence.”
About a week ago, Aziz accompanied Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng to lodge a police report against those named in the DoJ lawsuits filed last Wednesday in Los Angeles, US.
Aziz said Malaysians had been put through a “great deal of embarrassment” due to what he claimed as the local authorities’ “lack of efficiency”, compared with that of their US counterparts who were efficient with their work, even though it was not their problem.
He also said the Malaysian Attorney-General’s (AG) Chambers and the police should be ashamed of their inaction, and that the rakyat would be right if they called for the resignations of these individuals.
Aziz also called for the Yang di-Pertuan Agong and the Conference of Rulers to intervene and take the necessary action to rectify the situation in the country.
He cautioned that if nothing concrete was done, citizens may follow the call of former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad to take to the streets to urge for Najib Razak’s resignation as Prime Minister of the country.

Aziz berkata beliau terkejut dipanggil untuk siasatan kerana kenyataannya minggu lalu tidak menggalakkan keganasan atau mengajak rakyat berdemonstrasi di jalanan.

PETALING JAYA: Pakar perlembagaan Abdul Aziz Bari berkata keterangannya direkodkan di Bukit Aman hari ini berhubung siasatan terhadap kenyataannya yang mendesak Yang di-Pertuan Agong dan Majlis Raja-raja mengambil tindakan susulan tuntutan Jabatan Kehakiman Amerika Syarikat (DoJ) berkaitan 1MDB.
Katanya, soal siasat berjalan hanya setengah jam.
“Polis berita saya disiasat di bawah Akta Hasutan dan kerana memalukan Agong,” katanya kepada FMT.
“Mereka menghubungi saya. Mereka tanya beberapa soalan, saya menjawabnya. Saya akan memberi kerjasama kepada mereka,” katanya.
Aziz berkata beliau terkejut apabila dipanggil untuk membantu siasatan kerana kenyataannya minggu lalu bukannya mengajak kepada keganasan atau menggalakkan rakyat menggunakan protes jalanan bagi meluahkan kekecewaan.
“Saya agak terperanjat dengan perkara ini kerana kenyataan saya hanya mendesak Agong mengambil tindakan. Saya tidak minta sesiapa buat protes atau keganasan,” katanya.
Minggu lalu, Aziz menemani Ahli Parlimen Segambut Lim Lip Eng membuat laporan polis terhadap mereka yang dinamakan dalam saman DoJ.
Aziz berkata rakyat Malaysia sangat malu kerana pihak berkuasa “kurang cekap”, berbanding pihak berkuasa AS yang cekap dengan kerja, meskipun itu bukan masalah mereka.
Katanya, Pejabat Peguam Negara Malaysia dan polis patut rasa malu, dan rakyat berhak mendesak mereka meletakkan jawatan.
Beliau juga menggesa Yang di-Pertuan Agong dan Majlis Raja-raja campur tangan dan mengambil tindakan sewajarnya untuk memperbaiki keadaan itu.
Beliau ada memberi amaran yang rakyat mungkin akan menyahut seruan bekas perdana menteri Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad untuk membuat protes di jalanan mendesak peletakan jawatan Datuk Seri Najib Razak.
