On Tuesday, police served a notice on Ngeh, who is also Sitiawan assemblyperson, to give a statement at the Ipoh district police headquarters over his allegedly seditious remark, following two reports claimed to be lodged by members of the public.

Ngeh was reported to have said that ‘police would shoot anyone they dislike’ during a press conference after the opening of the Perak state assembly sitting on March 30.

He purportedly said this in protest of the presence of the many police personnel during the proceedings.
