KANGAR (Bernama): The individual, who allegedly sent a Facebook message threatening to cause physical harm to Perlis Mufti Datuk Dr Mohd Asri Zainul Abidin two days ago, has been nabbed in Penang.
Perlis police chief Datuk Noor Mushar Mohd said the suspect was picked up at his home in Gelugor at around midnight.
The 36-year-old man, who works as a clerk, has also been remanded for four days from Friday to facilitate investigations into the case, he told Bernama when contacted here. Two days ago, Mohd Asri lodged a police report, claiming that he received a Facebook message from a user by the name of"Sandev Sandev", allegedly threatening him with physical harm.
The Mufti said the suspect also gave a contact number for him to call and asked to have Mohd Asri's home address to enable him to come over and beat him. - Bernama
