The short story penned by
novelist Chamil Wariya and published by Utusan Malaysia is 'worse' than
the Internal Security Act, according to DAP Youth deputy chief Chong
Chieng Jen.
He told this to
reporters after filing a police report at the Dang Wangi police
headquarters against the novelist and the Malay daily in Kuala Lumpur this
afternoon.
He
claimed that the story entitled, 'Politik baru YB J' was "insinuating and
instigated people to take action into their own hands."
"I regard the Internal Security Act as a very bad law but this is even
worse than ISAĦ (influencing people) to take the law into their own
hands," he said.
It has been alleged that the story penned by Chamil and published over the
weekend was fashioned around DAP parliamentarian Teresa Kok.
The story relates how a female Chinese parliamentarian is killed by a
youth for promoting a new brand of non-race-based politics which he felt
could disrupt the country's harmony.
Chong, who was accompanied by Serdang DAP MP Teo Nie Ching, also read out
the last paragraph of the story to reporters.
The paragraph reads: "YB Josephine adalah ancaman terhadap keharmonian.
Lebih baik riwayatnya ditamatkan supaya masyarakat berbilang kaum boleh
tinggal aman damai di negara bertuah ini. Saya berkorban untuk masa depan."
(YB Josephine is a threat to harmony. It is better her life is ended so
that the people of various races can live in peace in this country. I have
sacrificed for the future) |
