Recently, Kuala Lumpur City Council (DBKL) officers were involved in a physical dispute with a balloon vendor, leading the incident to go viral online.
Following this, many shared their 2 cents both publicly and privately, but not every private message on this matter has remained confidential.
PKR politician, Dr Faiz Na’aman, took to his Facebook page to reveal a message shared in a WhatsApp group, calling for people to splash acid or hot water on DBKL officers in an effort to ‘teach them a lesson’.
Dr Faiz wrote, “A threat and intimidation of injury against DBKL enforcement officers.”
“I have received a screenshot from this WhatsApp group. It seems that this extremist group has the intention to incite chaos, criminal actions with political sentiments involved (they have linked things to the Madani era), and this person even insulted Malay people in a flat-out manner. I have advised the owner of the screenshot to file a police report immediately.”
The message in question
The person who sent the message to the WhatsApp group basically told other members that they need to be hostile towards DBKL officers by splashing them with acid or hot water on sight.
“My friends, be Malays who are aggressive, not Malays who are stupid and made to be fools. When you see DBKL enforcement officers, you should take action first. Splash acid or splash hot water (on them), only then will they have some brains after that,” it read.
The person went on to share their belief that “many Malays have been made a fool during the Madani government era”, and they should punish the Malay communities that allow this.
We genuinely hope that the authorities look into this as the message could pose a danger to DBKL enforcement officers.
