Govt lodges police report against Sulu claimants FMTNews
Malaysia stopped paying the Sultan of Sulu’s heirs their annual compensation after the Lahad Datu incursion in 2013.
The PMD’s special secretariat said the report was in view of their US$32 billion claims against Putrajaya through an arbitrator in July 2019, which it said was a threat to national security.“Following the report, it is believed that a criminal investigation will be initiated by the authorities to ensure the country’s peace, security and stability,” it said.
Arbitrator Gonzalo Stampa ruled that Malaysia had violated the 1878 agreements between the old Sulu kingdom in the Philippines and a representative of the British North Borneo Company that used to administer what is now Sabah.Malaysia then challenged the arbitration order in France and Spain. A French court granted a stay order on the award, pending a decision on Malaysia’s claim that the order infringed its sovereignty over Sabah.
