Charles Santiago says despite the reported two arrests, there were bigger questions to be answered by the police.
"Where was his security? Who heads his security protocol and why was Syed Saddiq forced to run, fearing for his life?"It’s great to know that they have nabbed two people believed to be responsible for the intimidation. But that’s not enough," he stressed.
Charles further questioned whether the incident, which Syed Saddiq reportedly said involved a group of about 200 people, was indicative of bigger problems where police have allegedly failed to protect a minister."The police must thoroughly investigate the mastermind who meticulously planned this harassment, which may have gone completely wrong had the minister not escaped," he said in urging Inspector-General of Police Abdul Hamid Bador to reveal the outcome of the probe.
Syed Saddiq - who is Bersatu youth chief - and his parents had attended a gathering at a restaurant at Ulu Tiram together with members from Bersatu's youth, women and division wings as well as their families. In videos of the alleged incident circulating online, the group could be heard yelling for the Muar MP to leave the state., a claim denied by Umno leaders including its youth chief Asyraf Wajdi Dusuki.
